This week we welcomed Aurore Dupin (@auroredupin.bsky.social) from CRPP Centre de Recherche Paul Pascal, hosted by Aitor Manteca (@manteka.bsky.social), for a fascinating seminar on surface-based cell-free platform to characterize host-pathogen interactions.

I am very proud to share the core project of my post-doc in this beautiful paper. With colleagues at the Weizmann, we built biochips to interrogate antigen-antibody interactions at high-throughput and quantitatively. Check it out at @natnano.nature.com

A very cool paper from the Frey lab @physicsoflifelmu.bsky.social. Self-assembly governed by compartment geometry... Testing this in (surface-based) artificial cells would be exciting.

Big news! I am starting my own research lab at the University of Bordeaux as a @cnrs.fr researcher. Excited to turn my dream job into a reality!

I will join the @crpp-bordeaux.bsky.social and the fantastic team of @baretjc.bsky.social, Nicolas Martin and @lauraal.bsky.social. Check dupinlab.com.
