Marine biofouling is a well-known massive problem: within the shortest time, ship hulls and
other man-made submerged surfaces are inevitably populated by various marine …

Ruthenium-based olefin metathesis catalysts, known for their functional group tolerance and
broad applicability in organic synthesis and polymer science, continue to evolve as an …

Marine mussels secret protein‐based adhesives, which enable them to anchor to various
surfaces in a saline, intertidal zone. Mussel foot proteins (Mfps) contain a large abundance …

While the peptide and protein therapeutic market has developed significantly in the past
decades, delivery has limited their use. Although oral delivery is preferred, most are …

Nonspecific protein adsorption and/or microbial adsorption on biomedical materials
adversely affects the efficacy of a range of biomedical systems, from implants and …

We have developed a single-molecule imaging technique that uses quantum-dot-labeled
peptide-major histocompatibility complex (pMHC) ligands to study CD4+ T cell functional …

Bioinspired polymeric materials are attracting increasing attention due to significant
advantages over their natural counterparts: the ability to precisely tune their structures over a …

One of the initial steps in the development of therapeutic agents is the identification of lead
compounds that bind to the receptor or enzyme target of interest. Many analogs of these …

During the last six years, combinatorial chemistry has attracted enormous attention from the
pharmaceutical industry because it can greatly facilitate the drug discovery process. 1 At the …
