SUMMARY:SEMINAR - “Engineering Smart Hydrogels on Multiple Length Scales 
 for\nBiomedical and Biosensing Applications” by Todd Hoare\, Associate\n
 Professor and University Scholar\, Dept. of Chemical Engineering\,\nMcMast
 er University\, Hamilton\, ON
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:   While multiple types of smart\,\nenvironmentally
 -responsive materials have been explored for a variety\nof biomedical appl
 ications (e.g. drug delivery\, tissue engineering\,\nbioimaging\, etc.)\, 
 their ultimate clinical use has been hampered by\ntheir lack of biological
 ly-relevant degradation as well as challenges\nregarding their non-surgica
 l administration to the body.  These\nfactors have particularly limited t
 he clinical use of\ntemperature-responsive hydrogels\, which are either hi
 ghly labile in\ndiluting environments like the body (e.g.
