Landes and Misiura

Caption

Chemist Christy Landes, left, and graduate student Anastasiia Misiura set up an experiment in Landes’ Rice University laboratory. Using sophisticated microscopy techniques, their study shows why proteins stick better to some surfaces than others. The details could be important to manufacturers fine-tuning drug purification, biosensors or anti-fouling surfaces.
