Research Interests
- What if we can build a protein from scratch?
- Our research group's goal is to see if small peptides can cooperate (called "self-assembly") to mimic the behavior of much larger proteins. This teaches us how peptides may have evolved into proteins in prebiotic chemistry and how to build bioinspired materials.
