The quest for developing an ideal suture material prompted our interest to develop a novel suture with advantageous characters to market available ones. From natural origin only silk, cotton and linen fibers are presently available in market as non-absorbable suture biomaterials. In this study, we have developed a novel, cost-effective, and […]
Our research focuses on borrowing inspiration from nature to design automated systems with lifelike capabilities. For example, inspired by creatures like the starfish, we are designing soft robots composed of compliant materials. Likewise, inspired by fabrication in nature, from the small scale (proteins) to the large scale […]
