Excited to share our new paper in @ACS_AMI! 🔬 We developed QuantGUV, an automated, high-throughput software to quantify the encapsulation efficiency of small molecules in synthetic cells. Read the open-access paper here doi.org/10.1021/acsami.6c036…

Conjugating dsDNA on AuNPs at high density has always been a bottleneck—until now. Our new work shows how thermal annealing can achieve surface densities of 0.25 dsDNA/nm².
We also demonstrate photothermal triggered release of over 80 nM DNA!

Just posted on bioRxiv! Our new method, QuantGUV, allows precise measurement of encapsulation efficiency of small molecules. Stop guessing, start quantifying! 🧬

Thrilled to share our new paper in @NanoLetters! 🎉 We've found a way to speed up DNA nanomachines. By adding tiny "bulges" to DNA, we can accelerate the four-way branch migration. 🔬🧬

⚠️ 🚨 EXCITEMENT ALERT 🚨⚠️
I can finally share the incredible news that I've been awarded an ERC Consolidor grant #ERCCoG Thank you so much @ERC_Research, reviewers and panel members for believing in my vision! The biggest thanks goes out to my amazing lab @MPI_Biochem 🙏❤️
Join my team at the #UniversityofSurrey to work on exciting projects developing new DNA/RNA nanotechnologies for information storage devices and synthetic biology as a #postdoc. To learn more and apply, visit jobs.surrey.ac.uk/Vacancy.as….
I'm excited to share that my collaboration grant from BBSRC has been featured by the University of Surrey! Check out the article for tips on making international collaboration a success: surrey.ac.uk/news/top-tips-m…

1. New paper in bioRxiv! In collaboration with @gbstan and @IC_reactions, we developed a new mechanism to overcome the speed limit of four-way DNA branch migration. doi.org/10.1101/2023.05.15.5… #nanotechnology#research#science

Amazing and heroic work by my former PhD student, Dr Alice Boo (now in Chris Voigt’s lab at MIT), and a wonderful collaboration with Harman Mehta (continuing the work of Alice) and @LedesmaAmaro. @RAEngNews @ImperialBioeng
(1/7) New preprint for ratiometric control of bacterial population, without toxins or syntrophy! Our system detects “burden” of genetic circuits across microbes in a community, and adjusts the population composition to a desired ratio automatically.
