An inspiring initiative from the biology department at École normale supérieure | PSL! In response to growing interest in #syntheticcell #research , they are offering a new course for Université PSL students
We hope to see many similar actions developed, which will benefit more students & #syncell research

Great article on Cees Dekker, who is actively involved in BaSyC and our #SynCellEU initiative. He is also the main applicant in the EVOLF programme, which has just received 10 years' funding from the Dutch Research Council.

🚀New paper: Synthetic cell-based organs-on-chip. Microfluidics have been used to create synthetic cells. Now we use synthetic cells to create microfluidic devices as organs-on-chip, mimicking the environment of lymph nodes to T cells for ex vivo expansion onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

A short, interesting article on the work of Oskar Staufer Oskar Staufer, who is building #synthetic vesicles to study cancer and the tumour immune environment
