US researchers have found a way to scale up DNA origami into larger structures by using DNA ‘tiles’ to pin them in place
Solar panels nowadays are flat, but folding them in origami-like ways could help dramatically boost the amount of power they could generate.
Chemists in Denmark have for the first time imaged chemical reactions on a DNA origami scaffold so that they can precisely attach single molecules
