Nanomedicine is a discipline that applies nanoscience and nanotechnology principles to the
prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of human diseases. Self-assembly of molecular …

The goal of this review is to introduce the biomaterials community to the emerging field of
self‐healing materials, and also to suggest how one could utilize and modify self‐healing …

A historical perspective of the development of spherical nucleic acid (SNA) conjugates and
other three-dimensional nucleic acid nanostructures is provided. This Perspective details the …

We have developed a new class of surface-enhanced Raman scattering beacons (SERS
beacons) that can be turned on and off by long-range plasmonic coupling, induced by …

We investigate the reversible association of micrometer-sized colloids coated with
complementary single-stranded DNA “sticky ends” as a function of the temperature and the …

The selective transport of molecular cargo is critical in many biological and
chemical/materials processes and applications. Although nature has evolved highly efficient …

Conspectus Proteins are a class of nanoscale building block with remarkable chemical
complexity and sophistication: their diverse functions, shapes, and symmetry as well as …

In this article we review the latest achievements in understanding and controlling DNA-
mediated interactions between colloidal particles. We report the results of experiments …

Bivalent DNA conjugates of beta-galactosidase, having pairs of oligonucleotides positioned
closely on opposing faces of the protein, have been synthesized and characterized. These …

Colloids coated with complementary single-stranded DNA “sticky ends” associate and
dissociate upon heating. Recently, microscopy experiments have been carried out where …
