Single-Cell Tracking on Polymer Microarrays Reveals the Impact of Surface Chemistry on Pseudomonas aeruginosa Twitching Speed and Biofilm Development (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 American Chemical Society. Bacterial biofilms exhibit up to 1000 times greater resistance to antibiotic or host immune clearance than planktonic cells. Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces retractable type IV pili (T4P) that facilitate twitching mo...

Discovery of (meth)acrylate polymers that resist colonization by fungi associated with pathogenesis and biodeterioration (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Authors. Fungi have major, negative socioeconomic impacts, but control with bioactive agents is increasingly restricted, while resistance is growing. Here, we describe an alternative fungal control strategy via materials operating passivel...

Immune-Instructive Polymers Control Macrophage Phenotype and Modulate the Foreign Body Response In Vivo (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Author(s) Implantation of medical devices can result in inflammation. A large library of polymers is screened, and a selection found to promote macrophage differentiation towards pro- or anti-inflammatory phenotypes. The bioinstructive pro...

Immune Modulation by Design: Using Topography to Control Human Monocyte Attachment and Macrophage Differentiation (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Authors. Published by WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim Macrophages play a central role in orchestrating immune responses to foreign materials, which are often responsible for the failure of implanted medical devices. Material t...
