MIT researchers have shown how flexible connector molecules can control nanoparticle assembly. The experiments offer a route to less densely packed structures, potentially useful in photonics and catalysis. Practical applications will require further development.

MIT researchers have developed an M13 bacteriophage platform with adjustable antigen density. In mouse experiments, higher-density vaccines improved protection against tumour development. These are preclinical findings, not evidence of effectiveness in people.
