Best pre-work routine so far. doggo gets a walk, we get our swims, and the residual tension washes away #doglife

The article over-emphasized first authors, so I want to capture here other key contributors at P&G: Kristin Hayslip, Akua Buabema Ofori-Boateng, Bill Small, Matthew Lynch, Rich Owens, and Janet Burns who made the work happen. Congrats to all, now let's find some commercial apps!.

Australia is #1 for cubosome work, led by folks like @BenBoyd_Monash, Calum Drummond, @conncharlotte1, & @TamGreaves. Our work from P&G around 2000 is highlighted at #3 and #17 in this article's list of the top 20 cited papers, happily with Swedish and Aussie pioneers.

Cubosomes are lipid nanoparticles, with even more complex structures than the ones in COVID vaccines and have been studied for years for their unique structure and properties. A recent meta-review looked at the impact and geographic concentrations of the research.
