The poster pitches at #NWOCHAINS were an absolute firework of great science. We learned about #antivirals, #organocatalysis, #MolecularMotors, #EnzymeEngineering, #photocontrol, #odor detection, sensing of #bacteria, #recycling, #batteries, #QuantumDots, #vitrimers, #BoneRegeneration, native #MassSpectrometry and #biomaterials. Always one of my highlights of the conference.

Happy to finally have my last results of my PhD project published in #CarbohydratePolymers: Ionic agarose derivatives as polyelectrolytic additives for controlled drug release.

Key highlights:
⚗️ Developed anionic and cationic agarose derivatives with tuneable degrees of substitution.
💧 Integrated these materials into hydrogels and alginate micro beads to enhance drug delivery performance.
⏱️ Achieved sustained and low-burst drug release over up to 14 days with advanced kinetic modelling for accurate release characterisation.

This research contributes to the development of biocompatible and efficient drug delivery systems with customisable release profiles. It now marks an end of this part of journey, where I have learned so much!

🍄 Can mushrooms revolutionize thermal insulation?
At Hof University’s ibp institute, the MycoBuild project explores how fungal mycelium can replace fossil-based materials and enable sustainable, energy-efficient insulation for the construction industry. 🌱🏗️

"Harnessing the ability of sporopollenin to absorb ultraviolet (UV) rays, Prof Cho’s team pioneered its latest pollen-based invention: a cooling, natural sunscreen made with the pollen of camellia flowers that does not harm marine life.

He called the sunscreen his most relatable application of sporopollenin."

I am in the middle of the #FiberFever summercamp organized by #timelab in #Gent. This year's topic focuses on biomaterials with locally foraged resources. Tomorrow at 6PM will be an open moment where we will still be at work, but people can come and have a look at all the experimentations and talk with the artists/designers/engineers of the group.

Hope to see you there!
