Molecular and cellular biophysicist Clifford Brangwynne at Princeton University has transformed the field of cell biology. He discovered that inside cells, biomolecules can merge to form liquid-like droplets that allow for the localization and compartmentalization of molecular interactions. The ability of these droplets to smoothly fuse and separate is critical for cell division and the development of embryos. Errors in this physical property may result in the formation of solid structures, such as the tangles and fibers found in Alzheimer’s disease, which can cause cell damage and death. The Life Sciences Jury noted that Brangwynne’s work has influenced many areas of biology.
