Michael Pelken was recently re-appointed to UCL’s Centre for Nature Inspired Engineering’s Advisory Board.
From the CNIE:
The Centre for Nature Inspired Engineering draws lessons from nature to engineer innovative solutions to our grand challenges in energy, water, materials, health and living space.
Using theory and simulation-assisted rational design, complemented by experiments, synthesis and testing, the Centre unites a highly interdisciplinary team of researchers, from the physical sciences to chemical and materials engineering, computer science, architecture, and medicine. Collaborations with a wide range of industrial partners allow us to accelerate the translation of research findings into practice.
