📢📢Next month I co-chair the #InternationalSoftMatterConference #ISMC24 in Raleigh, North Carolina. You do not would want to miss it. Abstract submission is still open at soft-matter.com/ismc2024/ Please share broadly!

Happy #DNADay2024 🍿Here are some fun facts about #dna and how we use it to build #bioinspired materials like a #cell

Check out this #trailer 🍿📽️ for our newest work @NatureChemistry Sound ON! 📢🔊 Synthetic cells come to life! #synbio #dna #selfassembly #mattertolife nature.com/articles/s41557-0… Many thanks to @SloanFoundation and @RCSA1 #CottrellScholar for funding the work!

What a pleasure spending the morning with @Eric_Betzig and get inspired by his journey.

Drawing inspiration from Nature to design innovative materials On the top is our biomimetic eclipsed hydrogel capsules, engineered to formulate personalized drug delivery systems. On the bottom, today's solar eclipse. #biodesign #biomimicry #innovation #eclipse @aps_unc @UNC
