SILK AT THE CONFLUENCE OF SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGY, GLOBAL HEALTH, AND ADVANCED MATERIALS

The Collegio F.lli Cairoli is pleased to invite you to the conference entitled: SILK AT THE CONFLUENCE OF SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGY, GLOBAL HEALTH, AND ADVANCED MATERIALS Friday 19/04/2024 at 6.30 PM Natural materials offer new avenues for innovation across fields, bringing together, like never before, natural sciences and high technology. Significant opportunity exists in reinventing naturally-derived materials, such as structural proteins, and applying advanced material processing, prototyping, and manufacturing techniques to these ubiquitously present substances. This approach help us imagine and realize sustainable, carbon-neutral strategies that operate seamlessly at the interface between the biological and the technological worlds. Some of these opportunities include biomaterials-based applications in edible and implantable electronics, food preservation, energy harvesting, wearable sensors, compostable technology, distributed environmental sensing, medical devices and therapeutics, biospecimen stabilization, advanced medical diagnostics, and will be outlined in this talk.
