📢Excited to share our latest research!🧬
We show a DNA-templated strategy to organize Pd complexes on carbon nanotubes with atomic precision, yielding CNT-DNA-Pd hybrids with tunable dielectric properties. Full study at: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti… @CanalUGR

Enzyme Biomineralization in MOFs not only protects enzymes but modulates crystal surface reactivity and biocompatibility. Amazing work in @JACS by @eborrego_phd @RebeccaVismara @FalcaroGroup @JorgeAR_Navarro et al. See: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…
