Geubelle Brings Computation, Theory to Collaborative Efforts
For Beckman Institute faculty member Philippe Geubelle, collaborating with other researchers is essential for his goal of understanding complex materials.

Granick Develops Method to Advance Usefulness of Lipids
U of I News Bureau -- Beckman Institute researcher Steve Granick, a member of the 3-D Micro- and Nanosystems group, has developed a method for stimulating patchiness in phospholipid membranes, a process which could help in using the organic compounds in biomolecules and biosensors.

Beckman Researchers Study Relationship Between Social Interactions, Gene Expression
U of I News Bureau -- Beckman Institute researchers David Clayton and Gene Robinson collaborated on a study showing that the interactions between genes and behavior is a symbiotic one. A 1992 paper by Clayton on gene expression in the zebra finch songbird brain provided a “eureka” moment for Robinson, lead author of the current paper.
