| Abstract | With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular, and Nanochemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Margarita Herrera-Alonso of Colorado State University will explore the formation of gene-carrying nanoparticles from synthetic macromolecules with a complex architecture. Gene therapy, or the treatment of diseases via delivery of nucleic acids into cells, is in continuous evolution as the search for more efficient delivery strategies moves away from the use of viruses toward the im |
