Biomedical scientists use chemistry-driven processes found in nature as an inspiration to
design biomaterials as promising diagnostic tools, therapeutic solutions, or tissue …

Polymer–drug conjugates have long been a mainstay of the drug delivery field, with several
conjugates successfully translated into clinical practice. The conjugation of therapeutic …

A wide variety of smart polymer systems such as thermosensitive polymers (TSPs) have
been developed and applied mimicking nature. TSPs are a class of macromolecules that …

Stimuli-responsive polymers adapt to their surrounding environment. These polymers are
capable of responding to a variety of external stimuli, which include optical, electrical …

The conjugation of synthetic polymers with various biomolecules provides an easy access to
biohybrid materials which combine advantages from both the synthetic world and Nature …

Protein-polymer conjugates are a class of molecules that combine the stability of polymers
with the diversity, specificity, and functionality of biomolecules. These bioconjugates can …

The focus of this review is on the class of transiently thermoresponsive polymers. These
polymers are thermoresponsive, but gradually lose this property upon chemical …

Self-assembling proteins are valuable building blocks for constructing drug nanocarriers
due to their self-assembly behavior, monodispersity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability …

Historically used for the delivery of hydrophobic drugs through core encapsulation,
amphiphilic copolymer micelles have also more recently appeared as potent nano-systems …
