Led by Prof. Monica Olvera de la Cruz, the group aims to design new soft materials for energy storage, molecular electronics, and bio-molecular therapeutics.
The Olvera de la Cruz group is hiring for a postdoctoral position in active gels! Please share with anyone who might be interested. https://t.co/tJ28Kt1ex7
In collaboration with the Bishop group at Columbia University, we show that Quincke rollers can exhibit oscillatory dynamics, whereby particles move back and forth about a fixed location enabling the design of colloidal oscillators. https://t.co/hcGa0losb3
In a recent collaboration with Danielle Tullman-Ercek, we used computational, theoretical and experimental approaches to determine mechanisms that effectively control microcompartment self-assembly. https://t.co/ViNl80Co8J
A collaboration with Uri Raviv from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem shows a unique assembly mechanism for virus-like particles, which continue to grow around nucleic acids even after forming a completed shell. https://t.co/A7kOVjlp89
The Olvera de la Cruz group has uncovered a new vulnerability in the novel coronavirus’ infamous spike protein — illuminating a relatively simple, potential treatment pathway. Read more here: https://t.co/SLKe5JGeFC
