Abstract: The discovery that coacervates – dense aqueous droplets formed by phase separation – play a role in almost every process taking place in our cells leads to new perspectives on soft matter in living systems. Studying the soft material properties and chemical capabilities of coacervates is opening new avenues in pharmacology and biomaterials.
