New Funding!

Congratulations to the lab on our contract to develop nanomaterials for self healing dental resins! We are tremendously excited to be working with the Naval Medical Research Command on this work.

Our paper on blast trauma, brain injury, and hemostatic nanoparticles is published!

We have had the privilege of collaborating with Pamela Vandevord and her group at Virginia Tech for a number of years looking at the role of hemostatic nanoparticles in blast trauma. In this work, we saw that not only did the particles improve survival and physiological outcomes following blast trauma, but they preserved neural tissue… Read More Our paper on blast trauma, brain injury, and hemostatic nanoparticles is published!
