Development of biohybrid and bioinspired microrobots toward biomedical applications Veronika Magdanz, Smart Nano-Bio-Devices Autonomous motion and precise control on the microscale is one of the main challenges in developing non-invasive medical microrobots. In this seminar, I present my approaches of how to develop artificial, biomimetic and biohybrid microrobots. We can be inspired by nature's solutions ... Read more
Peptide based nanomaterials with life-like functions Mohit Kumar, Molecular Bionics group at IBEC Chemists' curiosity to create life de novo has sought inspiration from biological systems. In nature, self-assembled nanostructures constantly form and degrade which provides unique features like on-demand function, adaptation, temporal and spatial control. Such processes are enabled by the metabolism and the ... Read more
Bio-inspired soft matter at the service of interactive biointerfaces and synthetic cells Cesar Rodriguez-Emmenegger, Group Leader, DWI-Leibniz Institute for Interactive Materials Nature achieves unmatched functionality by the self-assembly of (macro)molecular building blocks in a hierarchical manner. All information necessary for the function is encoded at the molecular level. Unraveling such blueprints serves as a powerful ... Read more
