Introduction
DNA Origami introduction stuff...
Other information...
The aim of our project is to develop a general strategy to functionalize DNA structures with bioactive cues, namely peptides.
We will demonstrate the utility of this approach with two applications. First, we will attempt to get structures into cells in an organized and controlled fashion, and second, get structures to pass through the blood-brain-barrier and enter the brain through the bloodstream.
