Was a pleasure to report on our synthetic immunology approach and how we use synthetic cells to improve immunotherapy 🎧
Very happy to have you onboard Marion!
New paper out in NatureComm: We built synthetic immune cells that self-assemble with cancer cells into hybrid tumoroids, enabling bottom-up reconstruction of the tumor immune microenvironment.

Excited to share our new @pnas.org paper! We used reconstitution approaches and synthetic cells to uncover what drives bispecific T cell engagers efficiency. This helps future #immunotherapy design and demonstrates the potential of synthetic cells in #immunoengineering:

Building tissues from the bottom up!
In Advanced Healthcare Materials @wiley.com, @ostaufer.bsky.social and co-authors show synthetic cells forming lymph-node-like tissues that host immune cells -towards building synthetic organs.

New paper out! Would you like to fluorescently label the plasma membrane in live, fixed or permeabilized cells? I tested different lipid structures and labelling approaches to decide what makes a good membrane labelling probe for such imaging experiments!
