UP scientists make thermoresponsive polymers for biomedical use

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – University of the Philippines (UP) scientists have created thermoresponsive polymers that promise astounding biomedical applications. Thermoresponsive polymers are molecules that undergo significant changes in response to temperature. Researchers Mark Ward and Theoni Georgiou wrote in their 2011 study that this material helps with drug delivery, gene transfer, and other biomedical purposes.  READ:
