Motivations Cold–denaturation of proteins Drug delivery applications

Smart Hydrogels Hydrogels are made by cross-linking a water soluble polymer. Expansion-contraction transition temperature is the approximately the same as the transition temperature of the uncross- linked polymer. Hydrogels can be made to be target specific.

The Dream Imagine delivering a drug imbibed in a gel via the blood stream to a diseased body part or organ. On arrival the gel interacts with the diseased cells releasing the drug with the gel safely dissolving.
