The National Science Foundation awarded North Carolina State University $525,836 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) for a three-year project grant completing July 2025. The university will research self-organizing nucleic acid supramolecular assemblies with stimuli-responsive properties. Specifically, the project aims to develop a toolkit for constructing responsive nanoparticle-based materials using rationally designed RNAs as modular building blocks. Researchers will correlate programmable nanoparticle parameters with physical and mechanical assembly properties and evaluate functionalizing individual nanoparticles with inorganic nanomaterials. They will also investigate how stimuli-dependent kinetic pathways impact functional supramolecular assembly properties. This work seeks to advance an engineering framework for stimuli-responsive nanomaterial design applicable to biomedical, electronic, and imaging applications.
