Our latest paper in @NatureComms details how we can assemble complex protein decorated synthetic cells with asymmetric membrane domains that are able to deform and divide. Great work @nyandrapalli @EdinburghChemE @EdinburghUni @MpiciPotsdam #OpenAccess doi.org/10.1038/s41467-026-6…

New paper in @BiophysJ ! Great collaboration with the Steinem lab, where we use microfluidics to trap giant lipid vesicles and analysis proton transport across membranes! doi.org/10.1016/j.bpj.2024.0… @uniGoettingen @EdinburghChemE @EdinburghUni #OpenAccess #microfluidics

Biology is so hard! If you’ve got enough of its insane complexity, talk to Tom Robinson, who tries to build his own artificial cells from scratch! #BiomembraneDays22
