recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Advanced Healthcare Materials"

DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202500376

Abstract: The assembly of protocells into prototissues represents a significant step forward in mimicking the hierarchical structure and complex functions of biological tissues. This review explores the construction of various protocell models, including lipid vesicles, polymer… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.accounts.2c00696

Abstract: Conspectus Although complex coacervate microdroplets derived from associative phase separation of counter-charged electrolytes have emerged as a broad platform for the bottom-up construction of membraneless, molecularly crowded protocells, the absence of an enclosing membrane limits… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.accounts.4c00174

Abstract: Conspectus Creating a living system from nonliving matter is a great challenge in chemistry and biophysics. The early history of life can provide inspiration from the idea of the prebiotic “RNA World” established by ribozymes,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/jacs.5c11734

Abstract: Coupling molecular-level chemical networks to macroscopic functions provides a step toward the implementation of rudimentary forms of agency in life-like objects and materials. Here, a negative feedback circuit within a networked binary protocell community is… read more here.
