Front cover of ChemComm designed by PhD student Claire Stanley
Cover artwork designed by Chemistry PhD student, Claire Stanley, is selected for front cover of 14 March edition of ChemComm
A communication detailing a new method for generating networks of biological membranes, namely ‘Droplet Interface Bilayers (DIBs)', in an automated, high-throughput manner has recently been selected for the inside front cover of Chemical Communications - the cover artwork was designed by one of our PhD students, Claire Stanley (Chem. Commun., 2010, 46, 1620-1622, DOI: 10.1039/b924897h). The authors including Claire Stanley, Katherine Elvira, Drs. Xize Niu, Oscar Ces and Joshua Edel, and Professors Antony Gee and Andrew de Mello are members of the Membrane Biophysics Platform and Microdroplets Group at Imperial College and GSK plc, highlighting the collaborative nature of the paper. This work introduces several new technological advances in the field of DIB platforms and has the potential to have a significant impact in areas such as drug discovery and in further understanding key protein-membrane interactions.
The title of the paper is: " A microfluidic approach for high-throughput droplet interface bilayer (DIB) formation". Read paper here
