Omid Veiseh,Joshua C. Doloff,Minglin Ma,Arturo J. Vegas,Hok Hei Tam,Andrew Bader,Jie Li,Erin Langan,Jeffrey Wyckoff,Whitney S. Loo,Siddharth Jhunjhunwala,Alan Chiu,Sean M. Siebert,Katherine Tang,Jennifer Hollister-Lock,Stephanie Aresta-Dasilva,Matthew A. Bochenek,Joshua E. Mendoza-Elias,Yong Wang,Merigeng Qi,Danya M. Lavin,Michael Chen,Nimit Dholakia,Raj Thakrar,Igor Lacík,Gordon C. Weir,Jose Oberholzer,Dale L. Greiner,Robert Langer,Daniel G. Anderson +29 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a broad variety of material classes significantly abrogate foreign body reactions and fibrosis in rodent and non-human primates when the spheres are larger than 1.5 mm in diameter.

TL;DR: In rodent and non-human primate animal models, implanted spheres 1.5 mm and above in diameter across a broad spectrum of materials significantly abrogated foreign body reactions and fibrosis when compared to smaller spheres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phase Behavior of Mixtures of Block Copolymers and a Lithium Salt
Whitney S. Loo,Michael D. Galluzzo,Xiuhong Li,Jacqueline A. Maslyn,Hee Jeung Oh,Katrina Irene S. Mongcopa,Chenhui Zhu,Andrew Wang,Xin Wang,Bruce A. Garetz,Nitash P. Balsara +10 more
TL;DR: The phase behavior of salt-containing block copolymers, plotted on a segregation strength versus copolymer composition plot, is similar to that of conventional (uncharged) blockCopolymer melts, when the parameter χeff replaces χ in segregation strength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth of Lithium Dendrites and Globules through a Solid Block Copolymer Electrolyte as a Function of Current Density
Jacqueline A. Maslyn,Jacqueline A. Maslyn,Whitney S. Loo,Kyle D. McEntush,Hee Jeung Oh,Katherine J. Harry,Katherine J. Harry,Dilworth Y. Parkinson,Nitash P. Balsara,Nitash P. Balsara +9 more
TL;DR: The uncontrollable nonplanar electrodeposition of lithium is a significant barrier to the widespread adoption of high energy density rechargeable batteries with a lithium metal anode as discussed by the authors, which is a promising application area.
Journal ArticleDOI
3D Printed Absorber for Capturing Chemotherapy Drugs before They Spread through the Body.
Hee Jeung Oh,Mariam Aboian,Michael Y. J. Yi,Jacqueline A. Maslyn,Whitney S. Loo,Xi Jiang,Dilworth Y. Parkinson,Mark W. Wilson,T Moore,Colin Yee,Gregory R. Robbins,Florian M. Barth,Joseph M. DeSimone,Joseph M. DeSimone,Steven W. Hetts,Nitash P. Balsara +15 more
TL;DR: The introduction of the absorbers into the blood of swine models enables the capture of 64 ± 6% of the administered drug (doxorubicin) without any immediate adverse effects, a significant step forward in minimizing toxic side effects of chemotherapy.
