Real-time label-free imaging of living crystallization-driven self-assembly. Our latest work now published in hashtag#NatureCommunications. This is the last of our pandemic papers, so no membrane biophysics! Applying label-free microscopy to watch polymer self-assembly in real-time. This lets us map directly how reaction parameters affect the composition and growth of individual 2D polymer microplatelets. A fantastic collaboration with Rachel O’Reilly at the University of Birmingham. Congratulations go to Yujie GUO, PhD for another fantastic bit of science.
