We're excited to share that Vivienne’s work on a light-triggered microneedle patch for painless, automated IVF hormone delivery was featured in the McGill Newsroom.

Our work on the light-activated microneedle patch that enables painless, on-demand release of IVF hormones, conducted by Vivienne, was published. A brief NIR pulse ⚡ significantly boosts drug levels 💊 in vivo, offering a needle-free option for IVF and other therapies needing precise daily dosing.

Yiwen’s research was also highlighted in a recent Nanowerk Spotlight article, showcasing how her innovative material design paves the way for smart, morphable systems in soft robotics and responsive devices. www.nanowerk.com/spotlight/sp...

Building on the earlier research, Yiwen's new paper introduces strong yet flexible graphene oxide paper that can fold, deform, and recover shape under humidity changes - a key step toward adaptive and reprogrammable origami metamaterials. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

In her postdoc, Yiwen prepared origami structures 🪭 made from super light graphene oxide that can change their structure upon magnetic stimulation 🧲 - pretty cool! And even better: you can read all about it here: doi.org/10.1002/advs...

We're excited to welcome two new students to our team: Ly (PhD) and Adi (Master's) will study pathological calcifications in blood vessels 🩸 and eyes 👁️!
