Coverage in @physorg_com about the latest findings from @ChemePitt's Oleg Shklyaev and Anna C. Balazs published in @PNASNexus: a synthetic system that on its own directly transforms chemical reactions into mechanical motion. https://t.co/bPBBEmtTlV

[Swanson School of Engineering @PittEngineering]

In a new study in @PNASNexus, @ChemePitt's Anna Balazs and Oleg Shklyaev reveal how chemical networks can mimic nervous systems to power movement in soft materials. https://t.co/MufaI1YihD

[Office of the Dean, Swanson School of Engineering @PittEngrDean]

Great to finally launch this program which is part of our comprehensive energy strategy and make our Pitt Engineering students more competitive in a critical global field.

[Swanson School of Engineering @PittEngineering]

Excited to announce the launch of a new program: the Bachelor's in Natural Gas, Renewables, and Oil Engineering. "GRO" prepares students for a rapidly changing global energy market as the world continues to move from fossil fuels to renewable resources. https://t.co/0H2NDABPow
