Abstract
In recent years an important momentum has characterized artificial cell (AC) research from the viewpoints of technical, conceptual, and functional achievements (; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ). Although the ultimate goal of AC research-the construction of minimal living ACs from scratch-is still not so near[fn1], the aforementioned advances raise an intriguing question. Is it possible to monitor these advancements by measuring AC “complexity”? The inverted commas around the term complexity warn the readers that in this article, we use the term loosely, not claiming that ACs must exhibit, in their structur
