Organic Electronics
Brian Collins (Physics) will talk about his research developing organic electronics. Dr. Collins’s research lab—composed of undergraduates and graduate students—is highly interdisciplinary, straddling physics, materials science, electrical engineering, and chemistry. Their cutting-edge research could help improve the design and performance of organic polymers: flexible, stretchable, biocompatible electronic materials that could be used to make everything from printable solar cells to brain implants that restore movement to paralyzed limbs.
