Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.[NiFe]‐hydrogenases efficiently catalyze hydrogen conversion, but their instability limits biotechnological applications. Here it is shown that encapsulating hydrogenase into hierarchical COFs with macro‐ and micropores and functionalized with sulfonic or carboxylic acid groups improves enzyme stability and electron transfer to electrodes.

Expanding the scale of molecular biophysics [PDF]
Physical Biology, 2016 Here, I argue that some of the secrets of complex biological function rely on assemblies of many heterogeneous proteins that together enable sophisticated sensing and actuating processes. Evolution seems to delight in making these structures and in continually elaborating upon their capabilities.

Long-range order and short-range disorder in Saccharomyces cerevisiae biofilm
Engineering Biology, 2019 Biofilm, a colony forming cooperative response of microorganisms under environmental stress, is a major concern for food safety, water safety and drug resistance. Most current works focus on controlling biofilm growth by targeting single genes. Here, the

Interconnected Porous Hydrogels with Tunable Anisotropy Through Aqueous Emulsion Bioprinting
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 3D bioprintable microporous bioink is developed using an aqueous two‐phase system (ATPS) composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) mimetic biopolymers. The ATPS bioink enables the fabrication of interconnected porous architectures with up to 70% porosity, supporting long‐term cell viability and 3D cell alignment, enabling a simultaneous generation of ...

Mechanistic modelling of a recombinase-based two-input temporal logic gate
Engineering Biology, 2017 Site-specific recombinases (SSRs) mediate efficient manipulation of DNA sequences in vitro and in vivo. In particular, serine integrases have been identified as highly effective tools for facilitating DNA inversion, enabling the design of genetic ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.An epi‐intraneural interface is developed through in silico optimization and a novel tridimensional microfabrication pipeline. The device integrates penetrating and epineural contacts on a flexible substrate. Mechanical, electrochemical, and in vivo testing in rat and pig reveal robust implantation, low‐threshold activation, and site‐dependent ...
