Lecture 2 Designer Biomaterials

Last week, Dr. Anita Shukla of Brown University came in to speak to us about drug delivery engineering. She spoke about its importance for many things including pain relievers hemostatic dressings. She spoke to us about her different obstacles as well as her impressive outcomes including insight into drug-resistant bacteria. This lecture, although mostly biology based, was very insightful in how to go about creating a project, testing it,  seeing what works, and making note of any problems that you run into. Even though they are on two different places on the science spectrum, the scientific method will remain the same.
