Death Spikes and Healthy Bumps: Nanostars for drug delivery
William Morton, Department of Materials Venue: G20, Royal School of Mines Click here to join the Seminar Abstract: Understanding how nanoparticles navigate biological barriers is crucial for determining their use as drug delivery agents. Cellular uptake has thus far been the main metric of determining the design of a successful nanoparticle. A mechanistic understanding of […]

TYC Lunchtime Seminar: Engineering and predicting the electronic and optical properties of porphyrin-based structures
Victor H Posligua HernandezDeaprtment of Chemistry Abstract: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising photocatalytic materials due to their high surface area and tuneability of their electronic structure. We will discuss how to engineer the band structures and optical properties of a family of two-dimensional porphyrin-based MOFs, consisting of M-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin structures (M-TCPP, where M = Zn or Co) […]
