- Additional information
- This output builds a paradigm for understanding active emulsions, the exploitation of which has subsequently influenced and advanced synthetic biology, including the elucidation of artificial chemotaxis (doi:10.1073/pnas.1619783114), curving droplets (doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.048003), flow-induced phase separation (doi:10.1073/pnas.1718807115), mobile shells for encapsulation (doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.123.178003), and light-responsive motions (doi:10.1038/s41467-019-13201-6). Key results were independently confirmed (doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.248302) and feature regularly in reviews (J. Phys. Condens. Matter 28:253001; Ann. Rev. Condens. Matt. Phys. 7:171, Nature Rev. Phys. 2:426). It was conducted in German Priority Programme 1726 (https://www.fz-juelich.de/ics/ics-2/EN/Leistungen/SPP1726/_node.html) and led to collaboration with Hitachi (Akinori Nishide, akinori.nishide.ja@hitachi.com).
