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
In this article, we present how we blended amyloid protein fibers with the conductive polymer PEDOT:PSS to fabricate self-healing thin films. The protein fibers modulate various properties of these t
