The Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering was created "to
develop biologically inspired materials and devices that will solve
critical medical and environmental problems and to translate these
transformative technologies into products that have an impact on society
and the world." The Institute's team of specialists includes technology
development fellows, professors, postdocs, and a range of other
partners. On the homepage, visitors can browse areas that include
Innovation, Translation, and Collaboration. Each area includes
multimedia clips, press releases, and interviews with Wyss researchers.
Some compelling discoveries include human organs made on a small chip
and a novel coating that repels almost every type of liquid and solid.
Additionally, the Library section contains interactive features, along
with speeches and essays from the Wyss faculty. Visitors are encouraged
to sign up for the Wyss Twitter and RSS feeds.
