Researchers develop light-sensitive hydrogel for controlled drug delivery

Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology have developed a light-sensitive hydrogel that could be useful for drug delivery.

Conventional materials for hydrogel scaffolds include synthetic polymers or natural biomolecules. This leaves the material to exist as a passive scaffold that can’t interact with the signals involved in biological processes.
