Join The Explorers Club on January 13th to hear about the groundbreaking research being done by Fiorenzo Omenetto at Silklab of Tufts University, where he is working to reveal how silk can be adapted into an advanced “living material” for the future.

This lecture will include a presentation by Fiorenzo Omenetto, one of today’s leading material scientists, as he unveils his groundbreaking work in transforming silk—an ancient innovation—into revolutionary living materials. These innovations aren’t just materials; they’re life-changing technologies, with applications ranging from virus-sensing gloves to surgical screws that dissolve in the body, and even materials capable of energy harvesting, wearable sensors for medical diagnostics and food preservation. Join us for an enlightening showcase as we explore how these materials of the future are reshaping our lives in unexpected ways, and offer new avenues for innovation, bringing together, like never before, biology and technology.

In-person tickets are $20 for Members, and $35 for the General Public.
Check-in will begin at 6:00 pm, with a beer and wine reception from 6:00 – 7:00 pm
