Network of excellent European research institutions that have joined forces to translate synthetic cell research into innovations.





We are hiring a PhD @EdinburghUni @SchoolOfEng_UoE to work on the bottom-up design and construction of synthetic cells using #microfluidics and #lipid membranes. Lab is based at the Institute for Bioengineering. #synbio eng.ed.ac.uk/studying/degre… Please RT!






Thank @AdvPortfolio. This work features a new concept for vesicle-forming amphiphiles with two ingredients: (1) a comb topology that prohibits entanglement compared to traditional polymersomes, (2) intermolecular H-bonds that create elastic heterogeneities and faceting.




Really excited 2b working with @YuvalElani @jwhindley @DiMicheleLAB1 on energy management strategies for #syncells. great collaboration with colleagues in Japan funded by @BBSRC & JST. #synbio @ImperialSci #energy @SynCellEU @buildacell @BaCSouthAmerica imperial.ac.uk/news/261214/1m…
