New publication from the Rodriguez-Emmenegger Lab!

RRodriguez-Emmenegger Lab@CREmmeneggerLab · Feb 24

Thank @AdvPortfolio. This work features a new concept for vesicle-forming amphiphiles with two ingredients: (1) a comb topology that prohibits entanglement compared to traditional polymersomes, (2) intermolecular H-bonds that create elastic heterogeneities and faceting.
