Precise control over molecular movement is of fundamental and practical importance in
physics, biology, and chemistry. At nanoscale, the peculiar functioning principles and the …

Photoswitchable lipids are emerging tools for the precise manipulation and study of lipid
function. They can modulate many aspects of membrane biophysics, including permeability …

Cellular membrane area is a key parameter for any living cell that is tightly regulated to
avoid membrane damage. Changes in area-to-volume ratio are known to be critical for cell …

Photocatalytic water splitting is a desirable reaction that produces a clean and sustainable
energy resource—hydrogen (H 2)—from solar light and water, a process called artificial …

Living systems create remarkable complexity from a limited repertoire of biological building
blocks by controlling assembly dynamics at the molecular, cellular, and multicellular level …

Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) represent a versatile model system to emulate the
fundamental properties and functions associated with the plasma membrane of living cells …

In recent years, stimuli responsive materials have gained significant attention in membrane
separation processes due to their ability to change specific properties in response to small …

Photoswitchable phospholipids, or “photolipids”, that harbor an azobenzene group in their
lipid tails are versatile tools to manipulate and control lipid bilayer properties with light. So …

A variety of moving objects driven by chemical energy have been reported. In this
Minireview, we focus on self‐propelled objects driven by interfacial tension and explain …
