Typical treatment of brain tumours such as Glioblastoma (GB) involves surgical resection followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Injectable, self-healing and mechanically tuneable hydrogels have been designed and developed within the Scherman research group to match the mechanical properties of human tissue, overcoming many of the pitfalls associated with the current state-of-the art treatments. Mediated by dynamic crosslinks, our supramolecular hydrogels are designed to deliver chemotherapeutic drugs in a spatiotemporally controlled manner for the treatment of glioblastoma and prevent tumour recurrence. These hydrogel materials represent a new treatment methodology for aggressive brain tumours and other hard to treat cancers.
The Department holds an Athena SWAN silver award for women in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and Medicine.
The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
