Graphene and 2D materials, despite being relatively fresh materials, have already taken a firm place in research, development and applications. A number of exciting phenomena have been discovered in these crystals and they continue bringing exciting results on a regular basis. However, probably the most important characteristic about 2D materials is that they offer a possibility to form...
Chemistry encoded in DNA and optimized by evolution enables efficient, clean, sustainable routes to fuels, chemicals, materials, pharmaceuticals and more. Evolution not only optimizes, however--it can also innovate. We are learning to use evolution to create entirely new biocatalysts, ones that catalyze reactions unknown in biology and sometimes unprecedented in human-invented chemistry....
