We had the pleasure of hosting Dr. @continiclau.bsky.social last week for a fascinating seminar on artificial cells with a focus on how soft matter can lead to cell-like behaviour. Thank you for visiting! See you soon✨ @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social #artificialcells #softmatter #science

Excited to be in beautifully snowing Denver for #APSSummit26. Looking forward to a week of learning and meeting scientists from around the globe! @apsphysics.bsky.social @apsdsoft.bsky.social @microrobotlab.bsky.social

🔸CELLOIDS UPDATE #4🔸 What are active particles❓ Active particles, also known as self-propelled particles, can use energy from their surroundings and convert it into directed motion. How do we make them?👇 @erc.europa.eu 🇪🇺GA:948590

🔸CELLOIDS UPDATE #3🔸 How do we make the microrobots membrane❓ Check out our JoVE article where we walk through the protocol we use! 🔗 www.jove.com/t/68340/usin... @erc.europa.eu 🇪🇺GA:948590 #microrobots #microrobotics #biorobotics #research #science #lipidvesicles #GUV #droplettransfer

🔸CELLOIDS UPDATE #2🔸 Our #celloid microrobots consists of a membrane and a core. @erc.europa.eu 🇪🇺GA:948590 #microrobotics #research #biorobotics (1/3)👇

SOFTINVADERS is the new project carried on at our lab✨ 🇪🇺 Funded by @erc.europa.eu (GA 101213190), it officially started in October 2025 and will end in March 2027. It aims at further develop celloid micrororobots so that they can penetrate solid tumors. Stay tuned for more!

We’re heading to #FocusLive in Milan at Leonardo da Vinci museum of science and technology 🔭 Come find us at our stand ❤️🔬🤖 #scicomm #focuslive2025 #science #research #microrobots

🚨Publication alert!👇 If you’re exploring the #droplettransfermethod for the first time to fabricate your #GUVs, or if you’re curious to learn more about this technique, check out our new article just published on #JoVE! 🔗 www.jove.com/v/68340/usin...

🔸CELLOIDS UPDATE #1🔸 The #CELLOIDS project aims at realizing cell-inspired #microrobots that can move inside soft tissues. Our microrobots will have four features. @erc.europa.eu GA:948590 (1/2)👇
