“Growing Cells on Apples, LEGOs and Bread. Why Developing Unconventional Biomaterials Matters.”
Abstract: The NIH Molecular Libraries Program was founded to translate the discoveries of the Human Genome Project into therapeutics through a network of high-throughput screening (HTS) centers. A decade of […]
“Enhanced Gas Transport in Hybrid Bio-Inorganic CO2 and N2 Fixation Systems” Abstract: With the surge of intermittent, renewable electricity, the storage of excessive electricity and reduction of CO2 or N2 […]
“Van der Waals Integration beyond 2D Heterostructures” Abstract: The integration of dissimilar materials to form heterostructures with designable electronic interfaces is central in modern electronic devices and has thus been […]
Abstract: Development of new synthetic strategies via organic photocatalysis in our group was described. Both photoacidic activity and photoredox activity of organic photocatalysts were discussed. A series of phenol-conjugated acridinium-based […]

“Nanomaterials Enable Delivery of Genetic Material Without TransgeneIntegration in Mature Plants”
Abstract: The introduction of unnatural functionality in biological systems coupled with detection using bioorthogonal chemical reactions revolutionized the field of chemical biology by enabling the investigation biological processes in live […]
“Electron (De) Localization in f-Element Systems: From Fundamental Questions to QIS Design Principles” Abstract: The La Pierre group studies how collective magnetic, physical, and chemical properties arise from electron (de)localization […]
Secondary Coordination Effects in Artificial Biotin-Streptavidin Metalloenzymes Designing artificial metalloenzymes is of interest because they combine the catalytic activity of possibly non-physiological but highly catalytically potent metals and the selectivity […]
