Additional information
The key contribution was a novel mechanistic model for non-classical crystal nucleation pathways. This insight provided an explanation for formation of protein coated microcrystals, which served as a basis for a successful BBSRC proposal (BB/F004664/1) where J Sefcik was a co-investigator. This work has further led to follow up collaborations and publications (Faraday Discussions, 2013) and is being further pursued in an EPSRC funded project (EP/J004812/1) led by J Sefcik. J Sefcik presented an invited keynote talk on this subject at the BACG conference in London in 2011.
