RNA and liquid-liquid phase separation
Non-coding RNA Research, 2021 Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) is a biological phenomenon that refers to the components of similar properties form droplets condensate in cells. These droplets play an important role in maintaining the stability of order in cells.

Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation in an Elastic Network
Physical Review X, 2018 Living and engineered systems rely on the stable coexistence of two interspersed liquid phases. Yet, surface tension drives their complete separation. Here, we show that stable droplets of uniform and tunable size can be produced through arrested phase ...
