Coacervates and Soft Interfaces
Radboud University
Institute for Molecules and Materials
Welcome to the Spruijt Lab
We aim to create artificial organelles that can be used as functional compartments in synthetic cells or as model systems to elucidate the role of coacervates in cells and in the origin of life.
We are currently investigating various (bio)chemical reactions to create, shape and grow these organelles in a dynamic way. In parallel, we use the compartments to direct reactions and regulate biological assembly processes.
