Review by Simao P. B. Teixeira Rui L. Reis Manuela E. Gomes Rui Domingues & Nicholas A. Peppas in the UT Austin Portugal program published in Science Advances. 29-page review "Epitope-imprinted polymers: Design principles of synthetic binding partners for natural biomacromolecules" science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


I am thrilled to share our work👇 about the beauty of glycans #glycotime. We discuss how glycosylation alters the pi-interactome and affects peptide aggregation. Delighted to collaborate with @UlijnGroup and TuttleLab. Ricardo Pires, Rui L. Reis, 3B's Research Group

Hiring alert 🚨 3B's Research Group - Some nice post doc positions available under the scope of Alexandra P. Marques’s prestigious European Research Council (ERC) grant ECM_INK - Revolving around #ECM, #skin, #bioinks and #bioprinting! 👇

Check our latest work published in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces: Functional Gallic Acid-Based Dendrimers as Synthetic Nanotools to Remodel Amyloid-β-42 😎pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… Big thank you to: Fernandez-Megia and J. Correa (CiQUS), Vicent Arca, Ricardo Pires and Rui L. Reis (3B's Research Group).

GAGs are amazing biomolecules that can be assembled in different shapes and cover wide range of bioactivities. Here👇we (3B's Research Group, Rui L. Reis) review some of them: GAGs as polyelectrolytes: implications in bioactivity and assembly of biomedical devices tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
