#REMINDER #CIBseminars Finding the Sweet Spot Between First Principles and Data-Driven Models to Dissect Biological Systems across Microbes and Plants Rajib Saha, University of Nebraska-Lincoln 📅July 3 ⏰12pm
Today we received a visit from students of the Licence Pro Microbiologie Industrielle & Biotechnologies (MIB) at Université Paris Cité. They had the opportunity to visit part of our installations and learn about the research we perform at the center. We appreciate your interest very much!
Study in Nat Commun shows a minimal system can drive synthetic cell constriction using FtsZ. The work is the result of a collaboration between P Schwille (MPI Biochemistry) and G Rivas (@cib-csic.bsky.social) groups, advancing simplified models of cell division. 🔗 syntheticcell.eu/less-is-more...
Less Is More: A Minimal Approach to Synthetic Cell Constriction
Researchers have developed and optimised a minimal system capable of inducing the constriction of synthetic vesicles, representing a significant step forward in synthetic cell division
