Did you know that the mere presence of drug-releasing particles in 3D printed scaffolds affects the degradation of the material?! We didn't! If you want to know more, you can find the paper here:

So impressed that Maria did this work as an undergrad! And fantastic work on Alejandro's side with mentorship, data analysis and writing the paper. So proud of you both.
Kicking off 2025 with a paper published! This collab btw @DrWillerth & @TheElviraLab explores atRA’s effect on smart bioinks. Proud to share co-first authorship with Maria Hangad, my undergrad mentee during my PhD at @chemistryatuvic. Full paper below👇.

I finally get to give a(nother) seminar to my department! Strange to think that the last time I did this, I was a postdoc interviewing for an Assistant Professorship!.
Next week we have our very own Dr. Katherine Elvira giving a talk titled " Building Customisable Artificial Cells on a Chip for Drug Discovery and Other Applications". She will be giving her seminar talk in ECS 116 at 11:30 am Thursday October 24th!

I love having guest lectures from industry on my course. We never pre-plan the content but they always talk about key analytical chemistry concepts that we have covered in class and how they use them in the real world!!.
Sharing insights on analytical chemistry and its role in medical device design, Nick Allan gave a lecture to.@UBC students in the CHEM 212 course. @TheElviraLab #medicaldevices #analyticalchemistry #biotechnology
