@fraaamazzz.bsky.social attended the #CCP4 Northern Meeting presenting our work @mpip-mainz.mpg.de on Single Particle #CryoEM of synthetic NMs, exploring the LEGO-like interactions that drive their self-assembly.
Great discussions&new ideas on how structural biology can be adapted to NMs!

Tailoring reactive handles on the surface of nanoparticles for covalent conjugation of biomolecules Surface modification of nanoparticles involves numerous types of active molecules such as DNA, antibodies, enzymes, or carbohydrates. These modifications usually require reactive handles like amines, ...

Excited to be sharing my first post to announce my first first author paper!
So happy with all these firsts!
In the paper we explore functional groups from total, to visible and finally accessible groups that can actually be utilised for surface functionalization.
