The nucleoid as a smart polymer [PDF]
Science has a close but very complex relationship with technology (Latour, 1987). A simple phenomenon is that technology enables science by offering tools that provide new data or new kinds of data. In other cases, aspects or views of the empirical world may remain invisible until technology builds something that unveils them to the eyes of the ...

A methodology is demonstrated for creating responsive polymer surfaces that can alter their wetting characteristics when exposed to a humid environment. For this, we take advantage of the surface partitioning of block copolymers at the polymer/air interface and utilize a hydrophilic group at the end of the surface-active block.
