Did you catch this Cal projection on the Campanile at the game last Friday? Fun fact: Gary Gin, design specialist at the Jacobs Institute for Design Innovation, is the “lighting hero” of the night.

Researchers engineered a new lipid nanoparticle that can switch its charge from positive to negative and may avoid triggering inflammation. At the same time, it can still deliver mRNA and other nucleic acids very effectively! Read our story: bit.ly/4xTC0kX
