The present invention is directed to copolypeptide hydrogels (DCH) containing non-ionic hydrophilic residues (DCH
EO
), incorporation of thermoresponsive elements into DCH
EO
, to generate thermoresponsive DCH (DCH
T
), and hydrogels that include a combination of DCH
EO
and DCH
T
. The invention includes preparation, uses, compositions containing the hydrogels and methods of tuning the hydrogels. The hydrogels can be used to deliver an agent or cells to an organism.
