Congratulations to Dr. Timothy Boyer @Boyer_TL for successfully defending his doctoral thesis! Tim’s work has focused on designing cartilage targeting cationic fusion proteins for the treatment of OA. Tim is heading to Rush University for his postdoc! He will be missed very much!

By combining experimental and computational approaches, we investigated the contribution of charge and hydrophobicity arrangement on cationic peptide’s intra-cartilage transport. We found that there is an optimum cationic peptide's residue configuration for cartilage targeting.
