Today we celebrated our great new grant at our @TNW_BN Bionanoscience department at @tudelft, the EVOLF project co-led by @gijsjekoenderi1 and myself : https://t.co/zJ0e0FKttE
I’m thrilled to be able to announce that we were granted a NWO Summit grant entitled ‘Evolving Life from Nonlife’ (EVOLF) with 40 million euro for a 10-year project aimed to cross the gap between non-life and life by assembling a living synthetic cell from lifeless biomolecules!

Nice article Leonardo and co-authors!
For building a synthetic cell, we will need to access the information carried in large DNA molecules. We used active learning to adapt in vitro gene expression to E. coli's chromosomes with a surprising efficiency. @SynCellEU Now out in @ACS_Omega 🥳 👉 https://t.co/5DpL5nBQdo
