With the invention of new materials for restorative dentistry, new techniques for application were needed. Research in bonding to dentin showed bond strengths that approached the cohesive strength of a tooth, but getting this research into the hands of practicing dentists was another process entirely. As Dr. David Alleman was learning and researching new protocols in adhesive dentistry, his questions about why debonds occurred in select areas of the tooth led to his formulation of the concepts of the hierarchy of bondability and decoupling with time, all while creating his Six Lessons Approach to Biomimetic Restorative Dentistry. These new concepts that built on a foundation of dental research from the past four decades gave dentists anywhere the ability to bond predictably to deep dentin and restore the tooth in a way that mimicked the form and function of a natural tooth: biomimetic dentistry. Send us a textStudy with Dr. David Alleman in 2025:Biomimetic Mastership - class starts September 15.

Vicent : Polypeptide-Based Nanomedicines: Enhancing Tropism and Overcoming Biological BarriersMaría J. VicentProfesseur, CIPF ValenceRésuméPolypeptides play a crucial role in areas like nanomedicine, where their biological function is governed by intricate structural features. Studying structure-activity relationships is essential to optimize polypeptide-conjugate designs, as minor structural changes can lead to unexpected yet highly effective biological outcomes. We have addressed traditional synthetic limitations by using controlled NCA polymerization and rigorous characterization, producing well-defined architectures. Post-polymerization modifications introduce various functional groups and orthogonal reactive sites, enabling a wide range of polypeptide configurations, such as diblock copolymers and star-shaped structures. These can self-assemble into supramolecular nanostructures with unique biological properties, including tissue specificity, subcellular targeting, and potential brain delivery. Through a bottom-up strategy and the strategic design of polymer-drug linkers, in vitro and in vivo assessments have shown these systems to be non-toxic, with enhanced cellular uptake and extended half-life and accumulation in specific tissues like lymph nodes, mitochondria, and the brain. These findings position our polypeptide-based nanosystems as promising therapeutics.María J. VicentProfessor María J. Vicent leads the Polymer Therapeutics Lab at the Príncipe Felipe Research Center (CIPF) since 2006 and became its Scientific Director and Cancer Program Coordinator in 2024.

Deming : Enhancing biomimicry via polypeptide side-chain modificationsTimothy J. DemingProfesseur, UCLARésuméOur lab has pursued development of methods to allow selective incorporation of diverse functionality into synthetic polypeptide materials. Specifically, we have developed synthetic methods that allow a robust variety of modifications to nucleophilic thioether containing side-chains in both methionine and alkylated cysteine residues. Here we show such modifications can create synthetic polypeptides that can mimic environmentally responsive coacervate formation as has been observed in cytosolic proteins. We also show how modifications can be performed simultaneously on both segments of aqueous block copolymer assemblies resulting in materials that can respond to biologically relevant stimuli.Timothy J.

The occurrence of the 20 essential amino acids in food-based amyloid fibrils derived from inexpensive animal and plant proteins, including from food waste, combined with the extreme aspect ratio of the amyloids, allow for an affordable, yet universal toolbox to produce multifunctional hybrids which can serve in a multitude of applications and technologies. In this talk I will provide several examples of food amyloid fibrils interacting with metal ions and nanoparticles for both health and environmental remediation, some of which have made it into real technologies. Taking β-lactoglobulin amyloids as a model amyloid system derived from whey, a by-product of cheese making process, I will show how metal ions can be adsorbed from water and wastewater solutions by amyloid-based filters for water purification purposes, or how gold ions can be adsorbed and processed from amyloid aerogels to recycle gold from e-waste. I will also show how iron atoms can be coordinated to β-lactoglobulin amyloids to deliver highly bioavailable Fe(II) for iron fortification, or to design hydrogels capable of performing cascade enzymatic reactions for alcohol detoxification in vivo.

Constructed through the spontaneous organization of precision-engineered block copolymers, these nanoscale carriers—typically 10 to 100 nm in size, comparable to viruses—feature a core–shell structure that enables both efficient drug encapsulation and excellent biocompatibility. While initially developed for small-molecule delivery, PM-DDS technology has rapidly evolved to accommodate more complex modalities such as nucleic acid and protein therapeutics, as well as imaging contrast agents. This presentation will focus on recent advances in PM-DDS, with particular emphasis on systems designed for the delivery of nucleic acid-based drugs including siRNA, antisense oligonucleotides (ASO), and mRNA. Highlighted examples include platforms that have progressed to clinical evaluation, underscoring the translational potential of these self-assembling nanocarriers in addressing intractable diseases.Kazunori KataokaProf. Kazunori Kataoka is the Center Director of the Innovation Center of NanoMedicine, Kawasaki Institute of Industrial Promotion, and Professor Emeritus at the University of Tokyo.

Advanced nanodevices may overcome some of these limitations. This will be illustrated by several advanced nanomedicine platforms: The design of biodegradable doxorubicin-loaded polyalkylcyanoacrylate nanoparticles for the treatment of the multidrug resistant hepatocarcinoma (a nanomedicine with phase III clinical trials ended).The construction of nanoparticles made of metal oxide frameworks (NanoMOFs), a highly hyperporous material obtained by the complexation of iron oxide clusters with diacids.The "squalenoylation", a technology that takes advantage of the squalene's dynamically folded molecular conformation, to link this natural and biocompatible lipid with drug molecules to achieve the spontaneous formation of nanoassemblies (100–300 nm). These squalene-based nanoparticles are using the circulating LDL as "indirect" carriers for targeting cancer cells with high expression of LDL receptors. The application of the "squalenoylation" concept to the treatment of cancer and neurological disorders will be discussed too.Patrick CouvreurPatrick Couvreur is a Professor Emeritus at Université Paris-Saclay and a member of the French Academy of Sciences.

As polymer chains are grown from surfaces that are modified with initiators or chain transfer agents to mediate chain growth, this process ensures a unidirectional growth and net parallel alignment of the polymer tethers. These surface-grafted polymer brushes have a complex nanoscale structure that is characterized, amongst others, by a non-uniform segment density profile. This presentation will highlight 3 examples of surface-grafted polymer brushes with unique non-biofouling and lubrication characteristics, as well as piezo- and pyroelectric properties, which demonstrate the intricate relationship between nanoscale structure and properties for surface-grafted polymer brushes.Harm-Anton KlokHarm-Anton Klok is Full Professor at the Institutes of Materials, and Chemical Sciences and Engineering at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) (Lausanne, Switzerland).

To better understand its role, there is a clear need for model systems in which life-like properties can be installed. In this lecture I will discuss a synthetic cell platform composed of a complex polymer coacervate formed from oppositely charged amylose derivatives and stabilized by a semi-permeable polymer membrane. The coacervate structure resembles better the crowded environment observed in the cytoplasm than vesicular structures normally do. Cargo, such as enzymes, can be highly effectively loaded in the coacervates, based on complementary charge and affinity. This allows protocell communication with this robust synthetic platform. Using natural scaffolding proteins we can controllably take up and release proteins from the artificial environment, which mimics natural secretion. We have reconstructed the cellular architecture of a eukaryotic cell by incorporating multiple artificial organelles, both with membrane-bound and membrane-less architectures. Furthermore we have equipped the cells with an artificial cytoskeleton that allows us to modulate membrane dynamics and mechanical properties. Finally, we are able to incorporate life-like features such as motility in these structures, making this class of artificial cells a very versatile platform to study and mimic biological processes.Jan van HestJan van Hest obtained his PhD from Eindhoven University of Technology in 1996 with prof E.W. Meijer. After a postdoctoral stay with prof D.A. Tirrell, he joined the chemical company DSM. In 2000, he was appointed full professor in Bio-organic chemistry at Radboud University Nijmegen. As of September 2016 he holds the chair of Bio-organic Chemistry at Eindhoven University of Technology. Since May 2017 he is the scientific director of the Institute for Complex Molecular Systems. He is one of the main applicants of two gravitation programs on Functional Molecular Systems and Interactive Polymer Materials, and was awarded two ERC Advanced grants (2015 and 2024). He has been elected member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2019, the Academia Europaea in 2023 and was awarded the Spinoza premium in 2020. 65 PhD students have obtained their doctorate degree under his supervision, and he has published around 400 papers. He is also cofounder of four start-up companies. The group's focus is to develop well-defined compartments for nanomedicine and artificial cell research. Using a combination of techniques from polymer science to protein engineering, well-defined carriers and scaffolds are developed for application in cancer treatment and immunology.

Biomimetic dentistry can be defined by three main principles: preserve pulp vitality, conserve critical tooth structure and fully connect the tooth at 30 MPa or more. Mimicking nature (biomimetic) is about scientific analysis of how natural teeth function and replicating those principles during the restorative process. This isn't art; this is science. In this episode Dr. David Alleman discusses the research behind understanding how a natural tooth functions and how practitioners can replicate that to improve clinical outcomes with biomimetic restorative dentistry.Article referenced in this episodeWang RZ, Weiner S.

Biomimetic restorative dentistry has been taught and practiced for over 20 years, with its roots linked to minimally invasive dentistry that started decades earlier. Minimally invasive dentistry sought to conserve tooth structure and restore only parts of the tooth affected by pathologies. With the invention of adhesive materials, adhesive dentistry showed promise in advancing minimally invasive principles with new materials that no longer required retention, but the adhesive restorations still fell short. Teeth are more complex than many other materials that are adhesively connected, so simply bonding the restoration to the tooth did not yield long-term success.In this episode Dr. David Alleman discusses how minimally invasive dentistry paved the way for the more conservative approaches we use today, how biomimetic dentistry made adhesives more predictable, allowing for longer-lasting bonds, and where cosmetic dentistry fits in to the adhesive dentistry spectrum.Send us a textNew 2025 training programs announced:Biomimetic Mastership - class starts February 10.

Dr. David Alleman first created his Six Lessons Approach for vital teeth, but the same conservative principles can benefit endodontically treated teeth too. Compared to traditional techniques for retention and bonding, the advanced adhesive and stress-reducing techniques of biomimetic dentistry are better suited for treating non-vital teeth, which are more brittle and susceptible to cracking than fully hydrated teeth with healthy pulps. This episode outlines how biomimetic techniques approach endodontically treated teeth differently and the research that supports these protocols.Articles referenced in this episode:Kishen A., Vedantam S.

How can we help people with prosthetic legs walk more easily and with less effort? In this episode of Neurocareers: Doing the Impossible!, we explore this question with Giacomo Valle, PhD, a leading researcher in the field of biomimetic brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and bionic legs. Dr. Valle and his colleagues at ETH Zürich have developed an innovative biomimetic BCI that uses peripheral nerve stimulation to convey naturalistic touch sensations in bionic legs. This groundbreaking work has earned them a spot as one of the 12 finalists for the BCI Award 2023. Dr. Valle's research focuses on creating artificial communication with the brain through peripheral nerve stimulation, providing a more intuitive and natural sensory experience. His team developed a biomimetic neurostimulation framework inspired by nature, capable of "writing" physiologically plausible information back into the peripheral nervous system. Using an in-silico model of mechanoreceptors, they created biomimetic stimulation policies, which were tested alongside mechanical touch and common linear neuromodulations. In clinical trials, these techniques have shown significant improvements in mobility and reduced mental effort compared to traditional approaches. The neural responses produced by this innovative approach resemble those naturally induced, marking a significant advancement in assistive neurotechnologies. Dr. Valle's project, "Biomimetic BCI Conveys Naturalistic Touch Sensations via Peripheral Nerve Stimulation for Bionic Legs," represents a major leap forward in neuroengineering and bionics. With an educational background that includes a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering and an M.S. in Bioengineering from the University of Genoa, and a Ph.D. in Biorobotics from the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Dr. Valle has extensive experience in this field. His career journey includes research positions at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne and ETH Zurich, where he contributed to significant innovations in neuroprosthetics. As a co-founder of the medtech startup MYNERVA and now a Tenure-track Assistant Professor in Bionics at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, Dr. Valle's research focuses on neuroengineering and computational models aimed at restoring sensory feedback and understanding somatosensory processing and neural control of movements.

I am a highly experienced holistic dentist with a professional journey spanning over three decades among disciplines and continents. My clinical practice, based in both the U.S. and Europe, encompasses general dentistry, systemic dentistry, cosmetic enhancements, preventive care, and specialized treatments such as amalgam removal, infection treatment, and snoring/sleep apnea interventions. I have had the privilege of leading dental departments, directing operations, creating dental technologies and patents, and overseeing patient care in diverse settings from private practices to specialized medical centers.    My commitment to holistic health extends beyond traditional dentistry; I've pursued advanced studies in aesthetic medicine, acupuncture, electro-acupuncture, and other integrative disciplines, furthering my understanding of the interconnectedness of oral health with overall wellbeing. My academic credentials include an MSc in Aesthetic Medicine from Queen Mary University of London, a Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from the University of the Pacific, School of Dentistry, and a deep foundation in biochemistry from both California State University and UCLA.    As a staunch advocate for holistic, biomimetic, and environmentally conscious dentistry, I've acquired numerous accreditations, notably from the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), Academy of Biomimetic Dentistry, and American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. Furthermore, my unique expertise in forensic dentistry as a Police Surgeon in New York showcases the diversity of my skills and contributions to the dental field.    Throughout my career, I have maintained active memberships with globally recognized dental associations, remaining committed to ongoing education, knowledge sharing, and promoting holistic dentistry principles. As a seasoned practitioner, I'm passionate about harnessing the power of integrative care to create personalized and comprehensive dental experiences for my patients.    Over the years, a consistent dedication to holistic dentistry has been showcased through diverse professional engagements, from the Holistic Dental Association's emphasis on Dental Epigenetics and Biomimetics to collaborations with Dr. Klinghardt Institute on systemic dentistry. This journey, marked by insights into the links between oral health and systemic well-being, has positioned dentistry as central to overall health. Both live sessions and online appearances, like the Myers Detox Podcast and Dr. Talks Summit, have echoed this sentiment, spotlighting the evolving role of dental practices in holistic wellness. I'm most proud of my patent established on United Stats Patient, Registered September 8th, 2020 for the Casanova Facelift technology.    I possess a wealth of expertise in dentistry and related fields, gained through extensive continuous education and specialized training that is unmatched except by the 1% of top dentists. My journey encompasses a diverse range of courses, seminars, and conferences, spanning topics such as advanced aesthetics, injectable fillers, dental implants, holistic dentistry, and more. Through this journey, I've developed a deep understanding of dental practice, blending theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience to embrace emerging technologies and evolving medical trends.

Mercury fillings and dental infections can have long-term effects on health, including chronic issues and systemic toxicity. Proper preparation and protocols are essential before and after dental procedures to ensure successful outcomes and minimize the risk of complications. Biomimetic dentistry focuses on conserving as much natural tooth structure as possible and using advanced techniques to promote longevity and oral health. Addressing gut health and heavy metal detoxification are crucial aspects of dental care and overall wellness. Cavitations are infections in the jaw that can cause autoimmune issues and other health problems. Improper tooth extractions and other factors can lead to cavitations. Mercury fillings and heavy metal toxicity can contribute to cavitations and other health issues. Detoxification and chelation protocols should be approached with caution and under the guidance of a knowledgeable practitioner. Addressing the physical, energetic, mental, intuitive, and spiritual aspects of healing is important. A 3D cone beam scan is recommended for diagnosing cavitations. Finding a dentist with expertise in whole body dentistry is crucial. 3D scans are essential for identifying cavitations and should be a standard practice in dentistry. Continuing education is crucial for dentists to stay updated on new treatments and technologies. Mineral balancing plays a significant role in overall health and should be considered in patient care. Melatonin can aid in detoxification and improve sleep architecture. Zirconia implants are a better alternative to titanium implants due to their biocompatibility and ability to allow light to pass through. Addressing structural issues before dental procedures is important for long-term success. Collaboration between dentists and chiropractors can enhance treatment outcomes.   Keywords: biological dentistry, mercury fillings, dental infections, cavitations, holistic approach, immune system, dental toxins, dental procedures, biomimetic dentistry, gut health, heavy metal detoxification, root canals, cavitations, jaw infections, autoimmune issues, tooth extractions, mercury fillings, heavy metal toxicity, detoxification, chelation, holistic healing, 3D cone beam scan, whole body dentistry, cavitations, 3D scans, continuing education, mineral balancing, melatonin, zirconia implants, structural issues, collaboration

I've gotten to spend a little bit of time with Rob Shepherd over the years. He's working on soft robotics and all the different kinds of materials advancements that could really help us make robots that are more naturally integrated into the world. Things like polymer colloidal suspensions as inks for 3d printers so they can fabricate microfluidic devices, synthesizing single micron to millimeter scale parts in glass and silicon and all kinds of other stuff, like tiny gears. Imagine if you were trying to make a micro machinery like Swiss watches, but smaller. That's the kind of stuff that he worked on in the past and researched, developing pneumatic actuators, different kinds of elastomers and things that could maybe give us a real kind of muscles for robots. Also developing the kinds of walking and undulating movements that you would want robots to do once they got beyond just being these kind of rigid jerky things that we have now. This also gets really interesting when you're trying to make fingers for robots, which I'm personally obsessed with. I think it is a kingpin that's going to enable robots to start going to all the places they haven't been able to. We've seen some real progress on that lately. Rob is a great guy, super humble, willing to share everything he knows, which is a lot. Rob is an associate professor at the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Cornell university. We recorded this in Ojai, California in a In-n-out Burger, on a Friday night, when it was full of teenagers... So this is it also an exercise in using AI for noise canceling, post-facto. I know it won't be the cleanest recording you've ever heard, but I think it will be interesting to know that we ran the audio through a tool called AUDO, and AUDO is one of many. I don't have anything to do with them. I've talked to the founders few times. I think it's cool. There's probably other ones, I don't know what the best ones are, but I've been using AUDO, and it's able to do this remarkable job cutting out, like a hundred noisy teenagers, while Rob and I are just sitting there eating burgers, talking about robots.

(2002) and Ph.D. (2010) in Material Science at the University of Illinois where his research focused on developing polymeric and colloidal suspensions as 'inks' for 3D printers. He also fabricated microfluidic devices to synthesize single micron to millimeter scale parts. Concurrently to performing this research, he received his M.B.A. (2009) at U of I and started a company, worked with several other startups, and gained significant experience with the details of market research, financials, accounting issues, and legal aspects of entrepreneurship. In 2010, he continued his education as a post-doctoral fellow at Harvard University in George Whitesides's research group in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology. In this group, he developed pneumatic actuators in soft elastomers that took the form of a machine capable of moving in multiple gaits: walking and undulating. These actuators have also been used for low-cost manipulators, and in concert with a microfluidic system for biomimetic camouflage & display.
