And here is the article "An Assembly-Line Mechanism for In Vitro Encapsulation of Fragmented Cargo in Virus-Like Particles". Congratulations Ayesha Amjad and all collaborators on really cool work!
An Assembly-Line Mechanism for In Vitro Encapsulation of Fragmented Cargo in Virus-Like Particles
The ability of virus shells to encapsulate a wide range of functional cargoes, especially multiple cargoes─siRNAs, enzymes, and chromophores─has made them an essential tool in biotechnology for advancing drug delivery applications and developing innovative new materials. Since therapeutic cargo ...

Mapping complex profiles of light intensity with interferometric lithography
Solving Maxwell's equations numerically to map electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of nanostructured metal surfaces can be a daunting task when studying non-periodic, extended patterns. However, for many nanophotonic applications such as sensing or photovoltaics it is often important to have an a...
