Associate Professor Ajla Aksamija was recently invited to lecture at the University of Akron Biomimicry Innovation Research Center (BRIC), an interdisciplinary research center focusing on innovations inspired by nature. The BRIC is unique in bringing biology, business, engineering, and design together in a focused PhD training platform, in collaboration with industrial partners. Ajla presented two lectures, one on sustainable design and building science in architectural practice and research, and one on methods for integrating innovation in architecture. She also met with many faculty members and PhD students working on interdisciplinary research relating to biomimetic engineering, science, and design.
