Will we soon co-exist with Living Sensing Material? Read our Interview with @Framepublishers to learn more about the Human-Bacteria Interfaces project and the exciting research at @bio_buildings! @Bea85DC @PaulaNerlich #biomaterials #biotechnology frameweb.com/article/sustain…

Will we soon coexist with living, sensing materials?

In the future, hybrid materials made of 3D-knitted textiles and genetically modified bacteria could turn interiors into living canvasses that can sense and react to their surroundings.
