Approximately 10-15% of the world’s energy use is spent on separating chemical species from complex mixtures. Avenues to improve selectivity and efficiency in these processes could revolutionize sustainable chemistries while allowing for the recovery of increasingly in demand elements…

Functionalized gold nanoparticles are versatile and effective tools for cell targeting and drug delivery, although their interactions with the plasma membrane are critical for cellular health…

Molecular heterogeneity and complexity at the nanoscale are defining characteristics of natural plasma membranes, which biomimetic models have only partially emulated…

The interface between two immiscible liquids, _e.g._, oil and water, is a hotspot for self-assembly, asymmetric chemical transformations, and peculiar transport phenomena that play a critical role in a range of applied and fundamental chemistries…

Advances in selectively isolating chemical species from complex mixtures often relies on harnessing molecular interactions at an interface…

Direct air capture (DAC) of CO2 is a negative emission technology that provides a unique opportunity for restoring the atmospheric CO2 concentration to an optimal level and mitigate climate changes…
