Explores biology fundamentals, proteins, lipids, and DNA as synthetic materials, covering cell structure, membrane composition, protein production, DNA structure, and tissue engineering.
Covers the basics of polymer biophysics, including DNA conformation modeling and the Boltzmann principle, emphasizing the exponential decay of correlations between segments.
Explores lipid membrane properties, including vesicle stability and block-copolymer mobility, and discusses the functionalization of polymersomes for responsiveness.
