Week 2 Recap

We hope to incorporate ferrofluids into our hydrogel design and use magnets to improve the administration of drug delivery via hydrogels. Through this method, the magnetic fields will pull the medicine more effectively in emergency situations from the alginate gel. The two medicines we are looking to use are either Acetaminophen or Naproxen. Both are found in common over the counter forms but we are looking to administer these into the leg, similar to an Epi-pen applicator.

We are working to solidifying our application of this method and are working with Professor Cheng to finalize details.

Shout out to our partner Eric, we hope you make a speedy recovery!
