Shaping polymersomes into predictable morphologies via out-of-equilibrium self-assembly

Polymersomes are used in many applications, ranging from drug delivery to microfluidics, but controlling their shape is difficult. Here, Christianen and co-workers have precisely controlled polymersome shape via an out-of-equilibrium process and fully understood the mechanism of this procedure.
