Self-assembly of amphiphilic dendritic dipeptides into helical pores
Article Abstract:
A library of amphiphilic dendritic dipeptides that self-assemble in solution and in bulk through a complex recognition process into helical pores is illustrated. The results depict that supramolecular dendrimer chemistry allows the controlled design of a range of periodic non-biological porous structures forming in solution and as films.

Supramolecular dendritic liquid quasicrystals
Article Abstract:
The fitness benefits of prolonged post-reproductive lifespan using complete multi-generational individual-based data sets from humans living in two different countries, is investigated. Evidence shows that women with a prolonged post-reproductive lifespan have more grandchildren, and hence greater fitness.
