Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering (Harvard)

The Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University develops innovative technologies by emulating nature’s designs. It combines biology, engineering, and medicine to create solutions that improve health, sustainability, and human life. For example, they design advanced medical devices, smart materials, and environmental tools inspired by natural systems like termite mounds or plant structures. The goal is to turn biological principles into practical applications, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration to address complex real-world challenges with cutting-edge, nature-inspired innovations.
