The Hierarchical Structure of Sheep Wool and Its Impact on Physical Properties
Sheep wool, a prevalent α-keratinous fiber, is an essential model for studying protein-based fibers. Its genetic diversity across breeds enables the establishment of multiscale structure-property rel...

Excited to share the latest publication from my team led by Simona Fine : doi.org/10.1002/adom...
We demonstrate how fundamental understanding of sel-assembly kinetics can be leveraged to photo pattern structural color in cholesteric films and tailor their colorimetric response to water exposure.

Dynamic Structural Colors in Cholesteric Cellulose Composites: Achieving Spatial and Temporal Control
By combining static and time-resolved optical, structural, and rheological techniques, we demonstrate that the blue-shift upon solidification of ethyl cellulose-acrylic acid mesophases corresponds to....

First day of the MICRO Summit at NU has been an amazing experience. Seeing all our undergrads from around the country present their research in front of their mentors, PIs and professional materials scientists. More to come tomorrow but really grateful to 3M Gives for supporting our program !

Today, my second graduate student Eleanor passed her quals ! Stay tune for more exciting news from the SPIn lab!
