"Wood bound with water" Our research on how structural water holds cellulose into strong nacre like structure is published in Journal of Materials Chemistry A. It elucidated hydrogen bonding mechanism in forming strong and touch materials from biopolymers pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

#UBCForestry @RenewMaterials, and Feng Jiang share their excitement about the new Bachelor of Science in Forest Bioeconomy Sciences & Technology (BEST) program, integrating biotechnology and economics for the 1st time in Canada. Apply now! Ming Pao (Vancouver) mingpaocanada.com/van/htm/News/2…

The most recent issue of Branchlines published by ⁦@forestry.ubc.ca on Bluesky⁩ showcases our #biomimic and #nature inspired research stories about using #Nanocellulose for building lightweight yet strong materials by #hydrogen #bonding and #3dprinting. nanocellulose.forestry.ubc.ca/2019/learning-…

Dr Feng Jiang Feng Jiang, #UBCForestry Assistant Professor, shares our BEST new program - BSc in Forest Bioeconomy Sciences and Technology. Find out why this is the program of the future in his interview with OMNI Television in Cantonese. #bioeconomy bit.ly/2Et3TIv

Using lessons from nature, #UBCForestry Assistant Professor Feng Jiang Feng Jiang and his lab are developing high-performance materials. Early structures can carry 15,000x its own weight, moving cellulose's nano-scale strength to the macro. Read more forestry.ubc.ca/2019/12/learni…

Last day to register for this exciting event is today, Feb 21: ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_23… !! Looking forward to hosting my PhD advisor, Prof. Derek Gray from McGill Chemistry on March 2 for the Burgess Lane lecture in Wood Science @ubcforestry UBC BioProducts Institute

Due to popular demand, we will be live streaming Monday's public lecture by Prof. Derek Gray - Forest-based Nanocellulosic Materials mediasite.audiovisual.ubc.ca/Mediasite/Play… We hope you can join in person (5:30 pm FSC 1005, if not, this stream & video link will be available. Please share widely.

Great event of Burgess-Lane lecture by Prof. Derek Gray at @forestry.ubc.ca on Bluesky. Congratulations to Hale Oguzlu for winning first place poster award on #3dprinting cellulose. Well done SFB team members on your excellent research on #renewable #biobased materials.

Check out our recent paper in ACS Sustainable Journals on converting low cost thermomechanical pulp into high value-added lignin containing nanocellulose. A green and efficient way to utilize forest biomass, and is expected to lower the cost of nanocellulose. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Congratulate to my PhD student Yuhang Ye for publishing his 1st paper in Advanced Functional Materials. Check out how nanocellulose can be used to develope multi-functional sensor for flexible electronics that can work under -70 C. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Check out our technology in #3dprinting #cellulose into lightweight and strong structure. The structure can support over 15,000 times its own weight and serve as #thermal #insulation material. Free access using the link authors.elsevier.com/a/1bbYb4x7R2W5…. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Super excited to attend #FIBC2023 Bioeconomy Conference and gave a talk on our collaboration with Wet’suwet’en First Nation and showcased our innovative bioproducts. Truly appreciate the great vision of IBIO branch from the Office of Chief Forester for building the bioeconomy.

I am pleased to share my fist publication with Materials Horizons on the development cellulose-based hydrogel for information encryption application. This paper is featured in the recent #MyFirstMH theme collection. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
