A new perspective by Professors Milan Mrksich and Chad Mirkin argues that nanomedicine effectiveness and safety depend on precise structural design, not just composition. A shift toward atom-level design could advance therapies across major diseases. spr.ly/60172oTy5

.Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics, Penn Engineers, @Carpick, and Ottman Tertuliano discovered that stacked graphene can fold itself into 3D shapes when punctured. The auto-kirigami effect could lead to new energy harvesters, sensors and microrobots, without chemicals or etching. bit.ly/43jsHPe
