Beneficiaries

The development of Darwinian Chemistry is a highly interdisciplinary challenge, which requires the expertise on the Theory of Evolution (PARM), The Chemistry of Autocatalytic and Self-Replicating Systems (RUG and BGU), the Technology of Out-of-Equilibrium Compartment (i.e., microdroplet) Systems (ESPCI and ELV) and the Physical Chemistry of Coacervates (USAAR). This combination of expertise is unique to this consortium and not found in any single lab in the world.
