Supramolecular chemistry specializes in non-covalent interactions. These weak and reversible forces are key to understanding biological processes and self-assembling systems, and to constructing ...

Scientists have developed photoresponsive supramolecular polymers that can undergo both intrachain folding and interchain aggregation. The material properties of polymers are determined by the ...

The synthesis and self-organization of biological macromolecules is essential for life on earth. Chemists now report the spontaneous emergence of complex ring-shaped macromolecules with low degrees of ...

While this scanning electron microscope image may look like a harbinger of doom—perhaps a symptom of a haunted instrument or a cursed lab—Gustavo Porrata Caraballo says there’s a perfectly rational ...
