Super-sized nanocage could deliver bigger drug cargoes
Think about how frustrating it is to try to fit a gift into a box that is too small. Sometimes you just need a bigger box.
Nature Synthesis aims to bring together researchers from all areas of chemical and materials synthesis, publishing work based on organic, inorganic, organometallic and materials chemistry as well as interdisciplinary studies at the interfaces between these disciplines. The journal will be focused on the development of new synthetic methods and approaches, together with the preparation of molecular- or materials-based products that have practical value or that extend our conceptual understanding of chemical or material systems.
