Colloquium: Engineering Molecular Systems

Molecular Engineering of Peptide Conjugates for Cardiovascular Therapies

Prof. Dr. Matthew Tirrell, The University of Chicago (USA),
Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering

Molecular engineering in our parlance means building functional systems from the molecular level up. Ten years ago, the University of Chicago launched what has now become the first school embracing and advancing this approach to applied science and engineering. This talk will describe the institutional aspects of how this is being done and some examples of the breadth of this approach. In-depth
attention will be given to the molecular engineering of self-assembled nanoparticles that can target pathological cardiovascular endothelium and deliver antiinflammatory therapeutics that retard progression of atherosclerosis and stenosis.
