Biomimetic and Cellular Membranes: Fluctuations, Shapes, Organization, Interactions

We are looking for Ph.D. applicants (via the IISER PhD program) and Postdoctoral fellows. Ph.D. students must complete at least one hands-on project during their first year. We encourage you to connect with students involved in the lab's publications & have your own opinions. Please email triptabhatia@iisermohali.ac.in

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids (January 2024). The first frame shows a quasi-spherical GUV prepared in water. AA (17.86μM) is added in the exterior compartment, and (a) the image is obtained approximately t = 104s. Shape changes, as observed by phase contrast microscopy, evolve from the beginning toward (b) t = 4304s and (c) t = 5463s for the same GUV. The buds remain connected to the mother GUV by a narrow membrane neck. The scale bar is 10μm and applies to all frames.
