New Review Out! Can we truly build life from the bottom up by encapsulating proteins we find in nature? Or should we instead also bottom-up design the proteins we utilize? 🧵1/2
New Review out! Can we eventually design not only proteins, but entire cells from scratch? Check out the review I wrote in @natrevbioeng about how to combine protein design with synthetic cell science. @SchwilleLab Link: nature.com/articles/s44222-0…
