Trevor Douglas studies how virus-like particles (protein shells derived from viruses, but without infectious genetic material) can be engineered into functional materials. A major focus is building these protein cages into nanoreactors that hold and organize enzymes, allowing controlled chemical reactions and multi-step biocatalysis. The work bridges chemistry, biology, and materials science to design self-assembling molecular systems with tunable properties.
