Ep 30 - The Shape-Shifting Peptide Trick

These aren’t your grandma’s stiff peptides. Meet the dynamic tripeptides that refuse to stay rigid, instead dancing through phase changes to become tiny, porous protectors of fragile biomolecules. We’ll take you inside this groundbreaking research that’s as playful as it is powerful—revealing new ways to preserve life’s building blocks without energy-hungry freezers.
