A Reductionist Molecular Dynamics Framework for Identifying Molecular Descriptors of Hydration at Solid–Liquid Biomaterial Interfaces

In synthetic polymer-based biomaterials, interfacial hydration plays a crucial role in biological interactions with proteins and cells. Although a wide range of polymers, including zwitterionic and non-ionic types, are used as biomaterials, the molecular principles by which their chemical structures influence interfaci...
