Some recent work by Santanu on Time Programmable Evolving Gels

It is possible to construct pH-triggered switchable gels in a programmable manner by coupling a hydrogel with the urea-urease reaction.

Lisa goes off to scatter some neutrons!

Here’s our user @lisathoms0n prepping a sample that will help us characterize multicomponent gels!👩‍🔬

🔍 Understanding gels has a variety of useful applications in cell culturing or up-and-coming fields like optoelectronics! pic.twitter.com/f70uR4y87l
