Abstract

Abstract: The front cover artwork is provided by the Spruijt group from the Radboud University in Nijmegen. The image shows a metabolic reaction pathway projected over a microscopy image of metabolite coacervates. Read the full text of the Research Article at 10.1002/syst.202200004 . Abstract : "We show how a wide range of prebiotic metabolites can form complex coacervates and combine two of life's most important hallmarks: metabolism and compartmentalization…" This and more about the story behind the front cover can be found in the Research Article at 10.1002/syst.202200004 .
