Current practices in the study of biomolecular condensates: a community comment
Nature Communications - The realization that the cell is abundantly compartmentalized into biomolecular condensates has opened new opportunities for understanding the physics and chemistry...
Check out this community comment in Nature Communications on biomolecular condensates! ๐งช๐ฌ ๐ง
The piece shows how condensates fundamentally change the study of biology, offering insights into cellular processes.
A great resource for anyone in the field, especially newcomers.
