Self-assembling cyclic peptide-diblock polymer conjugates. The conjugation of carboxylic acid diblock co-polymer (pBA-b-pDMA, 1) with the diamine functionalised cyclic peptide. In aqueous conditions, the conjugated cyclic peptide-diblock conjugate (CP-(pBA-pDMA)2, 3) self-assembles to form a hydrophobic core around the peptide and a hydrophilic corona
