Our work published in @ScienceAdvances presents origami-inspired strain sensors with large stretchability, small hysteresis, and fast response, which could be useful for measuring large and complex deformations of soft bodies. @uscviterbi_ame @uscbme science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Check out this recent paper from our group in collaboration with @NblOsu and @lab_poirier, where we introduce rotor lattices, which are capable of undergoing beautiful order-disorder transitions, and can importantly be realized with DNA nanotechnology. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti….

Super excited to share that my @Caltech work on the 3D printing of metals using hydrogels is finally out in @Nature! Using a process called hydrogel infusion, we show a new way of 3D printing, where you pick the material AFTER you print the structure (1/9) nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

仰观宇宙之大,俯察品类之盛,所以游目骋怀,足以极视听之娱,信可乐也。 Looking up, I see the immensity of the cosmos; bowing my head, I look at the multitude of the world. The gaze flies, the heart expands, the joy of the senses can reach its peak, & indeed, this is true happiness

Can a chemical system sense the topology of an active liquid crystal? In our latest preprint now on arxiv.org/abs/2210.03796, we propose a reaction-diffusion system that labels defects:
On the cover of @NaturePhysics this month, the work of @odauchot @BaconnierP @Gulliver_lab illustrated by @AlexandreDizeux !! Work from actuation #scicom nature.com/articles/s41567-0… and a great video here :youtube.com/watch?v=CbuBe1yC…
