向普通观众成功演示脂质组装化学在物理（脂质组装的纳米尺寸）和智力（复杂的，相互关联的概念）两方面都具有挑战性。很多时候，由于时间的限制，老师不得不在讲授的内容中遗漏一些关键概念，不幸的是，这阻碍了学生形成连贯的理解。在这个演示中，我们提出了一种通过模块化和渐进式学习来解决这个难题的方法。主要由三个直接的动手实验组成，该演示使脂质组装化学中的大多数关键概念能够传达给感兴趣的学生。脂相分离是当前膜生物物理研究的一个重要领域。
Successful demonstration of lipid assembly chemistry to a general audience can be challenging on both physical (nanoscopic dimensions of lipid assemblies) and intellectual (complex, interconnected concepts) accounts. Quite often, an instructor has to leave key concepts out of what is being offered due to time constraints, which unfortunately hampers students’ developing a coherent understanding. In this demonstration, we present an approach to address this conundrum through modular and progressive learning. Consisting mainly of three straightforward hands-on experiments, this demonstration enables most of the key concepts in lipid assembly chemistry to be conveyed to interested students. Lipid phase separation, an important area of current membrane biophysics research, is also covered.
