We had the pleasure of hosting Dr. @continiclau.bsky.social last week for a fascinating seminar on artificial cells with a focus on how soft matter can lead to cell-like behaviour.
Thank you for visiting!
See you soon✨

Researchers define 'animate' droplets via three criteria—active, adaptive, and autonomous—using chemistry and physics to mimic life. Applications range from consumer products to oil-spill cleanup, though achieving full autonomy remains an unsolved challenge.

Chiara, Marco (@M_Severi_96) and myself delivered three talks at the Winter Workshop on Materials for Energy in Brixen! Great atmosphere, ideas, networking and...a lot of fun skiing! #compchem #modelling #softmatter
Our research has been featured on the JST website!
We revealed that a droplet on a soft substrate can behave like a solid sphere.

https://pubs.acs.org/toc/jacsat/147/52: Droplets hunting for “chemical treasures”: oil-in-water droplets reshape in response to chemical gradients (from the glowing treasure chest), recapitulating how living cells detect and grow toward or away from environmental cues. By understanding the forces driving this behavior, the authors aim to build synthetic versions of cellular life and gain deeper insight into matter-to-life transitions.
