Multi-Responsive Nanogels for Biosensing, Drug Delivery, and Regenerative Medicine

This webinar, made available by Pennsylvania State University, was presented by John R. Clegg, a postdoctoral fellow in bioengineering in the Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University. The purpose of the webinar is to introduce "environmentally responsive hydrogels with particular focus on fabrication and application of nanoscale hydrogel networks, or nanogels." Topics covered include: Thermodynamics of Gels: Swelling and Stimulus Response, Thermodynamic Response to Environment: Molecular Level, Biologically Relevant Example: pH Responsive Hydrogels, Fabrication and Responsiveness of Ionizable Nanogels, Synthesis of Intellegent Nanogels via Inverse Emulsion Polymerization, and more. The video runs 1:05:25 minutes in length.
