Cell membranes exhibit multiple layers of complexity, ranging from their specific molecular
content to their emergent mechanical properties and dynamic spatial organization. Both …

The interaction between charged objects in solution is generally expected to recapitulate
two central principles of electromagnetics:(1) like-charged objects repel, and (2) they do so …

Supported membranes, formed as a single continuous lipid bilayer on a solid substrate,
such as silica, have been used extensively as a model for protein‐protein and cell‐cell …

Monolayer-protected metal nanoparticles (NPs) are not only promising materials with a wide
range of potential industrial and biological applications, but they are also a powerful tool to …

We study the consistent inclusion of ionic size-asymmetry for a wide range of macroparticle
charges in the primitive model of an electrical double layer around a spherical colloid using …

Molecular dynamics studies have demonstrated that molecular water at an interface, with
either a gas or a solid, displays anisotropic orientational behavior in contrast to its bulk …

We study the interaction between two charge regulating spherical macroions with dielectric
interior and dissociable surface groups immersed in a monovalent electrolyte solution. The …

While photopolymerization has been broadly used to fabricate hydrogels, the kinetics of the
structural evolution of such hydrogels during photopolymerization and how the kinetics …

Over the past few decades, the experimental literature has consistently reported
observations of attraction between like-charged colloidal particles and macromolecules in …

A single glycan-lectin interaction is often weak and semi-specific. Multiple binding domains
in a single lectin can bind with multiple glycan molecules simultaneously, making it difficult …
