  1. Controlling Membrane Organization: Effects of pH, Ions, and composition

    Online Presentations | 23 Mar 2008 | Contributor(s):: Jennifer Hovis

    Our main research interests are in determining, at the molecular level, how cell membranes are organized and how that organization relates to function. The primary molecular building blocks of cell membranes are lipids, amphipathic molecules that assemble into two opposed leaflets forming a...

  2. Understanding Deformation Processes in Nanocrystalline Metals Through the Use of Real-time Electron Microscopy Techniques

    Online Presentations | 03 May 2007 | Contributor(s):: Eric Stach

    It is has long been known that the grain size of a material has a substantial effect on its mechanical strength, through the well-established Hall-Petch relationship. In the past decade or so, there has been a resurgence of interest in this topic resulting from the ability to create metals with...
