After just a year transitioning from @radboudscience to @AarhusUni, I’m excited to continue exploring coacervates, aiming to design Synthetic Programmable Artificial Condensates for Enzymatic Reactions - gaining insights into metabolic engineering & synthetic biology

In our new paper, now published in @Nature, we report on the discovery and implementation of a chemical reservoir computer based on the prebiotic formose reaction. Congrats to Mathieu, Thijs, @quentin_duez , @robn_will and Wilhelm!🥳 Read the paper 👇 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

How do coacervates direct the outcome of (bio)chemical reactions? We developed a model to predict their effect on bimolecular, polymerization, self-replication and oscillating reactions, to guide experiments. Exciting results for origins of life & biology! chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Great to see some of the condensates that I've been working on during my PhD could have played a key role in this paper, for example the elastin like polypeptide system GFP-K72 and the nucleolus model NPM1-rRNA.
