Today we celebrate the first PhD from the lab. Dr Cleis Battaglia 🔥 Well done Cleis. It feels we are a proper lab now ❤️ and how nostalgic to remember how it all started...




Our new workshop 'Crystal Explorers' created by Emma Tomlinson and Annabel MacGregor, was a hit with a fantastic P4/5 class Gorebridge Primary , can't wait to see how your classroom crystals grow! ✨


So much fun to try our workshop for the first time today!! Annabel MacGregor ❤️

Davide Michieletto Coolest paper of the week!

Such a pleasure to present our work at the meeting of minds The Royal Society! It's always satisfying to see shocked faces in the audience when I state that we have enough DNA in each of us to travel to the end of the solar system several times!


Excited about discoveries of topological motifs in complex network materials! If you have not read the beautiful paper by Giorgia Palombo, Simon Weir, Davide Michieletto, and Yair Fosado nature.com/articles/s4156… yet, please do! This is just my teaser … nature.com/articles/s4156…

It doesn't happen every day to be highlighted in Nature Materials! Thanks Emanuela Del Gado, this made my day ❤️

Experiments and simulations of DNA nanostar hydrogels reveal that microscopic topology determines macroscale elasticity in amorphous networks. Davide Michieletto nature.com/articles/s4156…
