We have mineralized bacterial collagen produced from E. coli to fabricate biomineral composites with different functions. This work is now available online in the journal Biomedical Materials. Congra
In this article, we report the synthesis of protein-capped perovskite nanocrystals in water. Proteins allow these nanocrystals to be stable for several weeks in aqueous environments! We performed th
Prof. Dorval Courchesne was selected as one of six 2022 Johnson & Johnson WiSTEM2D scholars. Her award (in the Engineering category) will support research of the Dorval Lab in the field of biological
