Welcome to our Evolutionary Photonics lab, where we hang out at the interface of organismal, evolution, developmental biology, soft matter physics, biophotonics, biomaterials engineering and biomimetics. We are interested in a precise, holistic understanding of bio-photonic nano-structures underlying animal and plant structural coloration (both iridescent and non-iridescent colors; both extant and extinct) in terms of their optical and biological function, development, evolution, and biomimetic and bio-inspired technological applications! |
