Our paper on engineering polymeric nanoparticles for #cancer therapy, on the cover of #NanoToday! Read the full paper here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @HMRIAustralia @SydneyNano @PrecisionMedUON

Excited to be promoted to Associate Professor at @Uni_Newcastle! Grateful to the amazing colleagues, students, and mentors who made this journey possible! @PrecisionMedUON @UON_research #PlasmaBioEngLab

@PrecisionMedUON @HMRIAustralia @Uni_Newcastle @UON_research Thank you for supporting this research, @PrecisionMedUON!

@BehnamAkhavan @HMRIAustralia @Uni_Newcastle @UON_research Wonderful news! Congratulations 🎉🎉

So proud of my PhD student, Elmer Austria, whose project on plasma polymer nanoparticles for precision #cancer therapy was selected as one of the top 100 prototypes for the Prototypes for Humanity exhibition in Dubai! @HMRIAustralia @PrecisionMedUON @Uni_Newcastle @UON_research

Loved giving a guest lecture on Plasma Bio-Engineering 🧫⚡️🧬 for @young_DrNo ‘s Biomaterials course at @Sydney_Uni today—with a truly inspiring group of Biomedical Engineering students! @Uni_Newcastle

Had an amazing day at #UQ, reconnecting with brilliant researchers and rising stars @drkgulati, @HaoSong15 and @AmiralianLab ✨🤝🏼 Awesome discussions and exciting collaborations ahead! 🚀 @Uni_Newcastle @UON_research @HMRIAustralia @PrecisionMedUON

Thankful to @ITI_org for supporting our Plasma Bio-Engineering research at @Uni_Newcastle, @HMRIAustralia and @Sydney_Uni. Honoured to be featured in their "My life beyond research" series. @UON_research @PrecisionMedUON @SydneyNano

Excited to be back at @UniversitySA next week after 10 years! Proudly hosted by @Zuber_Kamil and @marta_krasowska . . @UON_research @Uni_Newcastle @HMRIAustralia @PrecisionMedUON

The beautiful #DonMorrisWalk on the @Uni_Newcastle #Callaghan campus is a hidden gem! A perfect spot for a peaceful start to the day 🌅🌿 (🔉 Sound on!)

@ThomasR55937842 @SalehiSahar5 @unibt @SFB_TRR225 Yes! I dug it out, and it was indeed super soft 🤤

@SalehiSahar5 @BehnamAkhavan @unibt @SFB_TRR225 I am not surprised! I hope your guest also enjoyed the "Buergermeisterstueck" which is underneath the shoulder bone (not often recognised but it is the softest and most delicate part)

After many years, it was fantastic to reconnect with @SalehiSahar5, my fellow graduate from #IUT, and see the amazing research she is doing @unibt on hydrogel biomaterials. Excited about the collaborations we have now in store 🇩🇪🍺🇦🇺🦘—stay tuned! @Uni_Newcastle @PrecisionMedUON

So excited to be awarded 2nd Place in the Three Minute Thesis competition at the School of Engineering @UON_research @Uni_Newcastle 🎉🥈Thank you to the judging panel and my supervisor Dr. @BehnamAkhavan for his constant support! #3MT #HDR festival #phdlife #PlasmaBioEngLab

Thank you for the warm welcome, @Boccaccini_Lab! So excited about the potential for our collaborations! @HMRIAustralia @PrecisionMedUON @UON_research

Today, on #INWED24, I celebrate the talented female PhD students who are working with me in our #PlasmaBioEngLab. Proud of you all… @Uni_Newcastle @Sydney_Uni @UON_research @SydneyNano @HMRIAustralia @PrecisionMedUON

Dr Possum exploring the campus 🌙🐾@Uni_Newcastle

It's that time of the semester again at @Uni_Newcastle when the next generation of our #engineers present their final year projects, before embarking on their professional journeys… 👷🏾‍♂️👩🏼‍💻👷🏻‍♀️ @EngAustralia @UON_NOVA

Had an incredible 2-day visit at @Tim_WoodfieldNZ Lab @otago, witnessing some of their amazing work in #3Dbioprinting! Thank you, Tim and @LabMaxYav for hosting me; and @Khoonono for facilitating this visit! @Sydney_Uni @Uni_Newcastle @HMRIAustralia @UON_research 🇳🇿🇦🇺

Had a fantastic time at Yonsei University’s School of #BiomedicalEngineering in South Korea! Looking forward to collaborating with some of the brightest minds in the field! 🇰🇷🇦🇺🤝🏼 @yonseiunivon @Uni_Newcastle @UON_research @HMRIAustralia @PrecisionMedUON

Featured on the front cover of Small! ✨ Check out our latest review article, led by soon-to-be Dr @LauraLHaidar, on Surface Bio-Engineered Polymeric Nanoparticles: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sm… @PrecisionMedUON @Sydney_Science @ASBTE1 @SydneyNano @Uni_Newcastle @UON_research

In Korea 🇰🇷, en route to #WBC2024! Can't wait to reunite with colleagues and my biomat buddies from across the world 🌍, and meet new peers 🤝🏼 @2024Wbc @ASBTE1
