                            - This paper uses quantitative cryo-electron microscopy to provide insight into the dynamic changes occurring during exposure of nanomaterials to cells and proposes a strategy for identifying these changes via a high throughput technique, dynamic light scattering. This is a key and ongoing concern for the development of nanoparticle toxicology and medicine. The work enabled Wills to obtain a Herchel Smith Fellowship at Cambridge University (https://www.herchelsmith.cam.ac.uk/) and our nanoparticle-based collaboration continues through EPSRC grants associated with external user access (EP/R02863X/1) and 3D volume microscopy of hybrid systems (EP/P00122X/1).
