Exciting news! Our latest paper, collaboration with @gmgrason is available in @softmatter. We show computational analysis of filamentous arrays with high aspect ratios (up to 100,000!), and their wrapping behavior and potential as adhesives! Check it out: shorturl.at/dvaZd

A strong start to the internal @UMassPSE Seminar today, featuring one of the talks from the Crosby Group! Nolan shared his exciting work on bioinspired snapping materials and poroelasticity. 🦐🐜 We're thrilled to see our department coming together to share new ideas! 👏 #science

We wish the happiest of New Year's to all of PSE’s alumni and friends! As we step into 2025, we are excited to continue making a meaningful impact, tackling new challenges, and achieving even greater success - together!! 🥳🎉
