Coach: Dr. Saskia Lindhoud, Nanobiophysics Complex coacervates are liquid phases which form when oppositely charged polyelectrolytes are mixed under the right conditions. Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of the…Continue readingPotato proteins in complex coacervates

Polluted drinking water is a timeless, global problem. Water purification is typically done via membranes, separating undesired elements from the drinking water. However, the membrane themselves are produced using (environmentally)…Continue readingHigh-throughput screening of factors influencing polyelectrolyte complexation

The biological function of the intrinsically disordered protein alpha synuclein is unknown. What is known, is that the protein plays an important role in the formation of Lewy bodies in…Continue readingCan alpha synucleine form classical micelles?

Plastics play a key role in the creation of a myriad of materials, products, and technologies that have contributed to the development and progress of society. With continuous growth for…Continue readingCatalytic Conversion of Bio-ethanol to Polyhydroxyalkanoates Building Blocks: Selective Oxidation of Crotonaldehyde

There has been an increasing interest in tailored catalysts with stimuli-responsive polymers, to improve the performance of the catalyst. Catalyst performance can be improved through the use of stimulus responsive…Continue readingStimuli-responsive polymers for regulated catalytic materials: effect of polymer functionality on the regulation mechanism
