Adhesive Microparticle Formulation For Localized And Sustained Drug Delivery
A hairy, water-in-oil-in-water microemulsion for prolonged delivery of one or more active ingredients while adhering to target tissues. Problem: Microparticles are promising drug delivery platforms due to their biocompatibility and stability. However, existing particle-based drug delivery systems are unable to fulfill the needs for prolonged delivery...

A drug delivery system tuned to the endogenous mechanical environment
Technology Overview: Tissues within the body experience mechanical perturbations across multiple force magnitudes and length scales, from mechanotransduction at the cell level to the dynamics of load-bearing joints. These forces not only maintain tissue homeostasis, but can also initiate degenerative processes when applied at supra-physiologic levels....

A Stretch-Activated Adhesive Microcapsule For The Controlled Release of Drugs In Wound-Healing Dressings
An adhesive drug-loaded microcapsule which releases therapeutic cargo upon mechanical stretching. Problem: Medicated dressings can improve healing of open wounds and improve pain management in patients. However, drug-coated bandages lack stimuli-response release mechanisms, so therapeutics are not released in a controlled and sustained manner. Poor...
