As bitter cold and gusty winds kick in, a cup of warm tea or coffee brings comfort, but one day might also help deliver actual medicine. In this episode, we will explore this idea with Dr. Sahab Babaee and Dr. Giovanni Traverso. They developed temperature-sensitive materials that change shape with warm water, enabling a range of sophisticated less-invasive gastrointestinal modalities. Dr. Traverso is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at MIT and a gastroenterologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School.
