Cell behaviors are influenced by the surrounding dynamic microenvironment where the
extracellular matrix (ECM) composed of different micro/nano-structures plays a key role …

Analogies with inert soft condensed matter—such as viscoelastic liquids, pastes, foams,
emulsions, colloids, and polymers—can be used to investigate the mechanical response of …

Existing solid‐nanoparticle‐based drug delivery systems remain a great challenge for
glioblastoma chemotherapy due to their poor capacities in crossing the blood–brain …

In the realm of particle self-assembly, it is possible to reliably construct nearly arbitrary
structures if all the pieces are distinct,–, but systems with fewer flavours of building blocks …

Embryo morphogenesis is impacted by dynamic changes in tissue material properties,
which have been proposed to occur via processes akin to phase transitions (PTs). Here, we …

The field of soft matter physics has expanded rapidly over the past several decades, as
physicists realize that a broad set of materials and systems are amenable to a physical …

The origin of rigidity in disordered materials is an outstanding open problem in statistical
physics. Previously, a class of 2D cellular models has been shown to undergo a rigidity …

We review the state of the art in foam and highly concentrated emulsion rheology, with an
emphasis on progress made over the last five years. Since the structures and physico …

Antioxidants play a crucial role in the protection and maintenance of health and are also
integral ingredients in beauty products. The active antioxidants possess numerous …

An important goal of self-assembly is to achieve a preprogrammed structure with high
fidelity. Here, we control the valence of DNA-functionalized emulsions to make linear and …
