Lurking in the sands, this hydrogel-based actuator emerges, expands and rearranges itself to trap the unsuspecting nut at its center 😱

This terrifying behavior is triggered by immersion in water @utkandemirci

Move over AI, there's a new intelligent material in town! Introducing the 'metasponge' - a smart material that changes its properties based on environmental signals. It can be used in robots, invisibility tech, and has exciting medical applications. #SmartMaterials #Innovation

What's the difference between plasmon enhanced electrochemical conversion and photoelectochemistry? Well you need to go to this talk to find out

[Enrique Contreras @E_electrochem]

So excited to be in the #ACSChicago 2022.
If you are interested, you are welcomed to see my talk!

New 3D-printed materials that sense their own motion could be useful in flexible robots or wearable devices. Air-filled channels deform when the material is squeezed or stretched, and measuring the air pressure reveals how the structure is deforming. https://t.co/nVWOBlreYn

@guimaraes_cf @3bsuminho @utkandemirci @Stanford @JieWang_1991 @RLGReis Great interdisciplinary discussion, basically we brainstormed what could be possible to do with bio-assemblies in medicine, but more fun, what can you do outside the medical area. Can we use biassemblies to build robots, architecture, or smart surfaces??

[Wei Wang@HIT (Shenzhen) @HitszWang]

My lab at Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen) is recruiting a few postdoctoral researchers in the field of active matter. See below for details. Thank you very much if you can spread the news to your friends and colleagues!
