Gold Nanocages
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a super-sized nanocage that can be used to deliver larger drug cargoes, according to an article published in Nature Synthesis. These nanocages, created using a simple building block process inspired by biological systems, have the largest ligand-enclosed inner cavity volume ever made. The larger nanocages have potential applications in drug delivery and biotechnology, and could be used to deliver larger therapeutic biomolecules to specific parts of the body. The research also suggests that the large internal cavities of the nanocages could serve as platforms for binding large biomolecules, which could be useful in drug discovery and development.

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.
