During the last few years, there has been an extraordinary increase in publications
describing the manifold applications of monoolein, one of the most important lipids in the …

Amphiphilic lipids aggregate in aqueous solution into a variety of structural arrangements.
Among the plethora of ordered structures that have been reported, many have also been …

Nanomedicines, while having been approved for cancer therapy, present many challenges
such as low stability, rapid clearance, and nonspecificity leading to off-target toxicity …

Future nanoscale soft matter design will be guided to a large extent by the teachings of
amphiphile (lipid or surfactant) self-assembly. Ordered nanostructured lyotropic liquid …

We herein report the tunable self‐assembly of simple block copolymers, namely polystyrene‐
block‐poly (ethylene oxide)(PS‐b‐PEO) diblock copolymers, into porous cubosomes with …

Lipid crystallization is ubiquitous in nature, observed in biological structures as well as in
commercial products and applications. In a dehydrated state most of the lipids form well …

Analogous to the complex membranes found in cellular organelles, such as the
endoplasmic reticulum, the inverse cubic mesophases of lipids and their colloidal forms …

Lipid bicontinuous cubic phases have attracted enormous interest as bio-compatible
scaffolds for use in a wide range of applications including membrane protein crystallisation …

Self-consistent field theory (SCFT) has established that for cubic network phases in diblock
copolymer melts, the double-gyroid (DG) is thermodynamically stable, relative to the …

Water is a ubiquitous liquid with unique physicochemical properties, whose nature has
shaped our planet and life as we know it. Water in restricted geometries has different …
