I will give a talk in a journal club style. I will introduce recent papers regarding liquid-liquid phase separation in cells.

In cell biology, several types of liquid condensates of proteins/RNAs have been found recently. The functions of such condensates and the physical mechanism of controlling the liquid state are intensely discussed. In this talk, I will focus on liquid condensates in the cell nucleus and review recent experimental results.
