New review in Journal of Polymer Science: "Polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) for drug delivery: A critical appraisal" by Eleonora G. Hochreiner and @BvRavensteijn from Pharmaceutics Utrecht, Utrecht Institute for Pharmaceutical Sciences. Inspiring perspective on a challenging topic! doi.org/10.1002/pol.20…

Having a great time at #S4L2023 with inspiring talks, including Greta di Marco's lecture on high resolution shrinking gels for kidney in vitro models. uu.nl/en/research/sc…

Many congrats to Eleonora G. Hochreiner and @BvRavensteijn for this beautiful cover and inspiring review in Journal of Polymer Science. Exciting to see what PISA will bring for drug delivery in the (near) future!

Lot's of great science at the biennial UIPS symposium today, with two of our PhD students awarded for excellent poster presentations. Congratulations Vivian Hegeman and Sanne van de Looij!!
