DNA mechanotechnology is particularly well suited for measuring and controlling piconewton (pN)–scale forces. In this talk, I will describe our efforts aimed at the development of nucleic acid force sensors and motors. In the area of force sensors, I will show exciting new advances in....

Collaborative writing poses a unique set of opportunities & challenges. In this workshop we will work (as you may have already guessed) collaboratively to identify specific challenges and adaptive solutions for navigating this eventuality. Then we will put our skills to the test!

Kinetic building skins that dynamically adjust their physical properties or shapes according to outdoor conditions can improve a building's environmental performance. New engineered materials provide a new conceptual and practical framework for designers to...

Pint of Science describes the international (non-profit) organisation of festivals that bring some of the most brilliant scientists to a local pub to discuss their latest research and findings with the audience...

Insect-machine hybrid robot, also known as cyborg insect or insect biobot is a fusion of a living insect platform and a miniature control backpack mounted on its body. Using living insect as platform helps us to bypass complicated design and fabrication process for robot structure and ...

LiMC2 will be hosting an interactive research webinar on Future Directions in Adaptive Architecture, with the goal of connecting researchers from both the Pennsylvania State University and the University of Freiburg...

Nature is masterful at using limited components and basic driving forces to achieve complex tasks, such as high power movement and multi-structure assembly, across a broad range of size scales. The materials that enable these
achievements often ...

This event gives us the opportunity to foster scientific exchange between Freiburg and Penn State. The idea is to get to know the LiMC² cluster's PhDs better and to identify possible collaboration partners for us and complementary methods and techniques that suit your work and can help you with your research.

After years of silence, redox-active organic compounds are re-emerging in the electrochemical energy storage community bringing with them interesting opportunities such as design flexibility, lightweight, low cost including limited environmental burden.

After an overview of the basics of energy storage in batteries, the most promising electrochemical operando characterization techniques for battery materials and electrodes will be discussed.
