My postdoc work is now on bioRxiv! We combined engineered bacteria and hydrogels to create implantable living materials that safely confine bacteria while letting them sense disease and release drugs from within. 🔗 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Check out our new work in ACS Synthetic Biology! We coupled biosensors with encapsulation to further enhance bacterial delivery to tumors
