Our implantable living materials work is officially out @science.org! We confined therapeutic bacteria in stiff and tough hydrogels for deployment in vivo. Check out the paper shorturl.at/qT6db and perspective shorturl.at/3ntm9 here

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

This work shows how materials and microbes can cooperate to create a new class of autonomous drug depots. Huge thanks to everyone in the Mooney Lab and collaborators at @wyssinstitute.bsky.social and @harvardseas.bsky.social who made this possible!

Encapsulated bacteria act as living sensors - detecting infection and releasing therapy on demand. We used this system to functionalize prosthetic implants and autonomously treat infections in mice.

Living bacteria can make drugs in vivo but risk spreading. Implantable materials deliver drugs locally but can’t sense or adapt. We built a stiff, tough hydrogel that safely contains therapeutic bacteria for 6+ months and resists mechanical stress.

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...
