Dr. Panagiotis Tasoudis is a postdoc research fellow in our lab and he just got matched into UNC cardiothoracic surgery residency. Congratulations and good luck to your residency!

In this work, we report a physical barrier against SARS-CoV-2 infection based on an inhalable bioadhesive hydrogel, named spherical hydrogel inhalation for enhanced lung defence (SHIELD). Good job Xuan & Junlang! Link: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41563-023-01475-7

The cover of our new paper in Nature Biomedical Engineering illustrates an inhalable virus-like-particle vaccine made of exosomes derived from lung cells and decorated with a recombinant SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41551-022-00902-5

Congratulations!!

Our paper recently published in @NatureNano develops ‘Nanodecoy’ therapy which can trick and trap SARS-CoV-2 virus. Link to the paper: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41565-021-00923-2 Congrats to Zhenhua, Zhenzhen and Uyen! Check it out in this video:
