A research by Harbin Institute of Technology states that DNA robots are emerging as a ground-breaking technological ...

When it comes to creating nanotechnology, one cannot simply build it with their hands. Instead, researchers need something nano-sized that is able to self-assemble. DNA origami is a method of creating ...

Scientists have designed a DNA scaffold that carries HIV vaccine proteins into the body and sharpens the immune response against the virus. One of the biggest hurdles in developing an HIV vaccine is ...

Essentially DNA origami enables long strands of DNA to fold, through self-assembly, into any desired shape. (In the 2006 paper, Rothemund famously used the technique to create miniature DNA smiley ...

Inspired by biological systems, materials scientists have long sought to harness self-assembly to build nanomaterials. The challenge: the process seemed random and notoriously difficult to predict.
