Congratulations to the whole group and particularly to Kassidy, Kristy, Amanda, and Marielle on their new publication, “Equilibrium interactions of biomimetic DNA aptamers produce intrafibrillar calcium phosphate mineralization of collagen” in Acta Biomaterialia! This has been a work in progress for a long while and is our first foray into...
Read MoreWith spring in the air and the end of the semester right around the corner, Sydney has been reminiscing about her work in synthesizing fluorescent solid-lipid nanoparticles. As she condenses and packs up her past experiments, she has been looking back at all the skills that GRAB lab has taught her. While she’s not eager to leave GRAB lab after only one...

We contributed to our chemistry community, learned a lot from other researchers, and were a little overwhelmed by hanging with so many chemists at the same time. These are our people! Congrats to Hailey,...
