In the time it takes me to make an espresso shot, I'll tell you about research coming from Max Planck Society in Germany.

Scientists are coming closer towards building artificial cells.

Recently, a group from Germany built tiny chemical machines that manufacture energy for cells to use. Researchers inserted these machines across artificial material that resemble natural cell membranes.

Why is this work important?
