Research summary
AI-generated

Jean Chmielewski's research focuses on designing peptide-based materials, such as coiled-coil and collagen-mimetic peptides, that self-assemble into structures like nanotubes, microcages, and crystals for uses including drug delivery and imaging. A parallel line of work develops peptide-based antibiotics and cell-penetrating peptide conjugates aimed at killing drug-resistant and intracellular bacteria. This work sits at the interface of chemistry, materials science, and biomedical/antimicrobial applications.
