A material that slips through skin might someday make needle-free insulin possible for people with diabetes. In mice and mini pigs, attaching the permeating polymer to insulin and applying the ...

A breakthrough zwitterionic polymer slips through the skin’s toughest barriers, carrying insulin deep into tissue and normalizing blood sugar, offering patients a painless alternative to daily ...

A new polymer reported in Nature may mark a turning point for needle-free insulin delivery. Researchers at Zhejiang University have developed a charge-shifting polyzwitterion that can carry insulin ...

For many people with diabetes, managing their blood sugar levels requires daily insulin shots — but now, scientists have invented a new polymer-based gel that can deliver insulin through the skin ...

Diabetes rates continue to rise, with 11.7 million Canadians living with diabetes or pre-diabetes. At UBC, scientists have created a pain-free drug delivery method to help people with diabetes manage ...
