Another paper from super post-doc @SamWilken_ on DNA nanostars, quantifying the delay for droplet appearance after a quench. The dynamics are consistent with distinct nucleation and spinodal decomposition regimes, and we map the spinodal curve. More here: doi.org/10.1063/5.0204…

Happy to share our just-published review article on liquids (condensates) formed from nucleic acids. We tried to be pretty comprehensive, yet during the publication process ~6 more papers in the area appeared...ah well. see here, hope you like it: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…
1) 500 mm lens plus blue band pass filter to knock down intensity, projected on paper 2) tree leaves as pinhole cameras, projected on sidewalk

We are saddened as we share that Nobel Laureate and emeritus professor Herb Kroemer has passed away. He was 95. The visionary theoretician and experimentalist brought forth ideas that literally changed our world. Read about his pioneering work and tributes engineering.ucsb.edu/news/nobel-lau…
got a new rug, and just noticed it is decorated with DNA nanostars

Check out our recent publication (rdcu.be/dyVe5), showing how fascinating intrinsically disordered proteins are, aggregating to star-like nanostructures or stretched as charged polymers. Thank you Mathar, Gil, and @OASaleh for this beautiful collaboration
