A few years ago we discovered the cloud point temperature of poly(2-oxazoline)s could be supressed by conjugating drugs. Now we show that physical mixing can do the same thing, paving the way for new injectable drug delivery devices. With @dr_nehagandhi authors.elsevier.com/a/1lWnb…

Not often I am a tourist in my own town but yesterday with the family I saw Brisbane from a different angle.

The street environment around Kelvin Grove QUT campus is absurd.
The epic climb over ICB northbound on ramp, the sketchy underpass of the northbound Hale St off ramp, frogger adventures across 6 lanes with no crossing at Victoria St etc.
We ♥️ this plan.

Chlamydia can reduce male fertility; treatment with antibiotics is ineffective due to chlamydia hitching a ride in other cells. He we showed that liposome nanoparticles with azithromycin can clear chlamydia. With @BenBoyd_Monash @EmilyBryanPhD others sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

I'm lucky to have access to facilities on the two campuses of @QUT so do the commute regularly and have timed it. The diff is significant but walking 3.5km is doable have certainty around trip time. I'd do it more often but downsides are major intersections and little shade.

Super happy to be able to share findings from @nick_huettner in collaboration with @dr_nehagandhi on why polyoxazines cyclize better than polyoxazolines and how this may overcome scale up challenges @QUTmaterials

To address the low-throughput of melt electrowriting we added a second nozzle. It was more complex that you'd think but with a bonus of being able to make semi‐woven structures with @meltelectrospin @elena_dejuanp and Raquel Sanchez Diaz onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
