My lab at Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen) is recruiting a few postdoctoral researchers in the field of active matter. See below for details. Thank you very much if you can spread the news to your friends and colleagues! Lab website://weiwang-hitsz.weebly.com/

Happy to share the robotic video of our paper "Acoustic Fabrication of Living Cardiomyocyte-based Hybrid Biorobots"in ACS Nano. A big thank to all of our great collaborators Fernando Soto Utkan Demirci Canary Center at Stanford The Soh Lab @ Stanford Joseph C Wu, MD, PhD @stoyanovalab youtu.be/SamtsSMexDY

New 3D-printed materials that sense their own motion could be useful in flexible robots or wearable devices. Air-filled channels deform when the material is squeezed or stretched, and measuring the air pressure reveals how the structure is deforming. mitsha.re/SIXz50KhN7H

What's the difference between plasmon enhanced electrochemical conversion and photoelectochemistry? Well you need to go to this talk to find out

Lurking in the sands, this hydrogel-based actuator emerges, expands and rearranges itself to trap the unsuspecting nut at its center 😱 This terrifying behavior is triggered by immersion in water Utkan Demirci Read the article: ow.ly/S26G50NMysK
