@KGoepfrich That was the plan all along! 😅

Is it comets? Is it GUVs? It might have been a failed #experiment from a #scientific point, but these #GUVs are beautiful nonetheless.

Want to make lipid vesicles below 1000 nm but not sure how? Maybe synthetic #ExtracellularVesicles? We‘ve published a detailed protocol for you! If you‘ve seen me at #ISEV2023 or #SynCell2023, these are the vesicle protocols used! https://t.co/8xGVHCJaU5

Just wrapped up the #SynCell2023 Conference! What an incredible mind-blowing journey it has been! 🌟Huge shoutout to the organiser, particularly @KateAdamala, for putting together an incredible event. 👏🏻 Can’t wait for the next one! 🙌🏻 #ScienceCommunity

[Andy @andy_fink]

I’ve had amazing 3 days at the #SynCell2023 conference full of inspiring research and awesome talks! Thanks also to everyone who listened to my talk about deforming GUVs on micropatterned surfaces!

Had some very fun 3 days at #SynCell2023 in Minneapolis! We listened to very original and interesting talks and I really enjoyed presenting my PhD work 🤓

My excitement might or might not be biased by the dessert table 🤩

Indeed. The wisdom comes from knowing where to hit, and just how hard.

What a day! Congratulations to Yannik Dreher on handing in his PhD thesis. Soon it is time for defence No. 2! @UniHeidelberg @mpi_mr_hd @ZmbhH
