Very excited I can contribute to shaping this new SUMMIT EVOLF consortium in NL including our lab @_amolf: where will we take building a synthetic cell in coming 10 years? It is going to be an inspiring and unpredictable journey!
I’m thrilled to be able to announce that we were granted a NWO Summit grant entitled ‘Evolving Life from Nonlife’ (EVOLF) with 40 million euro for a 10-year project aimed to cross the gap between non-life and life by assembling a living synthetic cell from lifeless biomolecules!

The information transmission rate of a system can usually be calculated only approximately. A new Monte Carlo simulation scheme makes it possible, for the first time, to do so exactly for a large class of systems. Read go.aps.org/49hR0xZ #PRXjustpublished #openaccess

Hebben ze geen glazen bol voor nodig. Wel energie.
Je zou het misschien niet denken: maar zelfs eencellige organismen - zoals bacteriën - kunnen de toekomst voorspellen. Hoe goed ze daar precies in zijn, dat hebben onderzoekers van @_amolf nu uitgezocht. @TjalmaAge vertelt meer in #wetenschapvandaag bnr.nl/podcast/wetenschap-va…
