  2. Neutrophiles phagocytosing poly-salicylic acid microparticles.
    Daniel Kupor
    Neutrophils (green) phagocytose Poly-Salicylic Acid (Poly-SA) microparticles (magenta) enabling intracellular drug delivery.
  3. 3D printed carotid artery model with particles bound.
    Logan Piegols
    3D printed macrofluidics devices allow us to better understand cell & particle interactions under dynamic flow.
  4. Human neutrophils phagoctosing rods over spheres.
    Daniel Kupor
    Neutrophils exhibit a phagocytic preference for rods over spheres, providing opportunity for selective targeting.
