Dr. Chong Zhang’s work was accepted in the special issue (Chemistry of Biomaterials) of the journal Biomaterials (DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2018.01.052). In this paper, interesting helical conformation and anchoring orientation effects were discussed, which showed significant impact  to the antifouling performance of the polypeptides-coated surfaces.
