Biological droplets are dynamic and transient assemblies of biomolecules that undergo phase separation within cells. Unlike traditional organelles bound by membranes, biological droplets form through ...

Liquid-liquid phase separation is not a precursor to formation of amyloid fibrils, a pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, shows study. Rather, the formation of protein into liquid droplets ...

Chemical engineering professor Dr. Jeetain Mittal has received a National Institutes of Health grant to support his work on phase separation. Mittal’s research focuses on developing a multiscale ...
