Our group is developing artificial cells that mimic the architecture, functionality, and behavior of living cells. We employ methods from polymer chemistry, materials science, and biochemistry to create cell-mimics for applications in synthetic biology and nanomedicine.

A glance at the details opens the window to understanding. By means of microscopic investigation of macromolecular structures we investigate their relationship to their function. We develop new methods to visualize nanosized structures using electron microscopy.
