Synthetic Cell initiative @SynCellEU Dec 5, 2024

Congrats to @KGoepfrich on receiving a $1.5 million grant from the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation. Along with @SaricLab & @BaumBuzz, she will challenge the assumption that the cell membrane is a passive material, changing shape only when pushed or pulled

We are very happy to celebrate our partner Prof. Seraphine Wegner, who was awarded the ERC grant for her Lighthouse project!

With Lighthouse, Seraphine and her team at @uni_muenster aim to establish light-based signalling between cells, in both living and artificial systems.
