摘要: The controlled assembly of synthetic polymer structures is now possible with an unprecedented range functional groups and molecular architectures. In this critical review we consider how the ability to create artificial materials over lengthscales ranging from a few nm several microns generating systems that not only begin mimic those in nature but also may lead exciting applications biology (139 references).
