• Microrheology of complex fluids (2005, background): “Actin does offer large contour lengths and semi-flexibility, which are only available in a few other systems; DNA, viruses, F-sickle cell aggregates and self-assembled peptides (Aggeli et al 2001).”
• Engineered and designed peptide-based fibrous biomaterials (2004, background): “The native silkmoth oocyte chorion, for example, is a lamellar structure thought to be analogous to cholesteric liquid crystal [30], and Aggeli et al. have observed liquid crystal phase behaviour in artificial systems in vitro [ 31 ].”
