Abstract: Heterogeneous molecules such as nucleic acids, amphiphiles and proteins self-organize into highly functional structures. In this talk, I will describe how to design heterogeneous molecules to control their organization andbiomimetic functions. structures including catalytic microcompartments and responsive hydrogels.
