Engineered Living Materials Conference 2024
INM hosts the 4th International Conference on Engineered Living Materials (ELMs) from September 18 to 20. Join the ELM community here! Natural living materials grow following information stored in their genetic code. They also undergo continuous and autonomous re-modeling in response to external factors and adapt their performance to new solicitations. Such properties are desirable […]

Engineering lipid membranes: From biophysicalproperties to biotechnological applications
Dr. Kevin Jahnke Harvard University, School of Engineering
Abstract The biophysical properties of lipid vesicles are important for their stability and integrity, key parameters that control the performance when these vesicles are used for drug delivery. The lipid vesicle properties are determined by the composition and arrangement of lipids used to form the vesicle. However, the symmetric structure of the lipid bilayer limits […]

Dynamic Materials and Systems Inspired by Cephalopods
Prof. Alon A. Gorodetsky, University of California
Event postponed: New date will be announced soon Abstract Cephalopods (e.g., squids, octopuses, and cuttlefish) have captured the imagination of both the general public and scientists alike due to their sophisticated neurophysiologies, visually stunning camouflage displays, and complex behavioral patterns. Given such characteristics, it is not surprising that these marine invertebrates have emerged as exciting […]
