Recent research news on Artificial Biology

18 February 2026 - Research news

AUNAB has gathered a strong interdisciplinary team of 11 students across different educations, who will represent Aarhus University at the world's biggest synthetic biology competition, iGEM 2026. Read more about their process here.

16 October 2025 - Research news

AUNAB members Assistant Prof. Miguel Ramos Docampo's and Prof. Brigitte Stadler's effort to engineered artificial cells to form cytoskeleton-like networks using nanomotor-driven actin polymerization is published in ACS Nano. These hybrid vesicles merge active matter with synthetic biology to achieve life-like movement and self-organization inspired by Listeria’s actin-based propulsion.

04 September 2025 - Research news

Steering group member of AUNAB, Prof. Brigitte Städler, has published a collaborative study in Advanced Materials on the successful reconstitution of the Drs2p–Cdc50p lipid flippase in polymer–lipid hybrid vesicles.

13 August 2025 - Research news

Aunab steering group member, Prof. Brigitte Städler, is among 103 authors who contributed to this Mega Review published in ACS Nano on the topic of Micro/Nanorobots, a field that celebrated its 20th anniversary last year.

24 March 2025 - Research news

The design of artificial cells is a focal point of intense research efforts. One characteristic that remains particularly hard to engineer is the responsive behavior in artificial cells. It requires the design of molecular mechanisms to receive, interpret, and react to external environmental or biochemical stimuli. This challenge is specifically addressed herein and the design of artificial cells that respond to the external chemical messenger by the activation of intracellular catalysis is…
