Designing Droplets
Pina Lab
Cells organize their interiors not only with membranes but also through liquid-liquid phase separation, LLPS, the spontaneous demixing that creates membraneless organelles like nucleoli and …
Luminescent Nanosheets
Granja/Montenegro Labs
Two-dimensional materials have captivated researchers since graphene's isolation in 2004, offering properties unmatched by their bulk counterparts. High surface areas, tunable electronics, and morphological anisotropy …
Sequence Hydrophobicity
Perry Lab
In this study, published in Biomacromolecules, researchers in Sarah Perry's group at the University of Massachusetts - Amherst, employ sequence-defined polypeptides as minimal models …
Glycan–Metal Synergy
Koksch Lab
Hydrogels, highly hydrated polymer networks, underpin both natural barriers such as mucus and numerous biomedical applications. Mucins, the glycoprotein constituents of mucus, achieve their viscoelasticity …
Shaping Peptide Assemblies
Jiang Lab
Peptides capable of folding into defined secondary structures serve as promising modular building blocks for supramolecular materials. However, conventional approaches to peptide-based self-assembly are often …
From Hydrogel to Crystal
Schneider Lab
Published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, researchers in the lab of Dr. Joel P. Schneider at NIH, have unveiled a groundbreaking …
Vesicle Inversion
Deming Lab
Self-assembled polymeric vesicles that respond to biologically relevant stimuli have significant potential in drug delivery and synthetic biology. While many stimuli-responsive assemblies disassemble upon activation, …
