LIQUID-LIQUID PHASE SEPARATION AND PHASE TRANSITIONS

One focus area in our lab is the study of phase separation phenomena and biocondensates, which are crucial for understanding cellular organization and are implicated in various diseases. Our research aims to uncover the dynamics of biocondensate formation, stabilization, and dissolution, along with their phase behavior and properties. The GHZ lab seeks to fill this gap and provide insights into the molecular mechanisms governing biocondensate behavior and their role in diseases. Moreover, we aim to unveil the mechanics and phase behavior of organic component crystallization and nucleation phenomena for the design of drug formulations and stabilization methods.
