I'm also honored to present this work at the Biophysical Society Annual Meeting next month as the recipient of the Physical Cell Biology Early Career Award! I'm grateful to the Subgroup Committee for this recognition.
I’m excited to share a new preprint led by Aishani Ghosal, formerly a postdoc in my group and now an assistant professor at NISER, with experiments led by Lindsay Case’s group at MIT! We show how client recruitment shapes composition in multicomponent condensates.
