Nanostructured squid sucker rings inspire materials designers
Clipped to the Drawing Board by Administrator  
A chance encounter with a Humboldt squid on a fishing trip left quite an impression on James Weaver, a research associate at UCR’s Bourns College of Engineering. In fact, the lasting impression also provided the impetus for further research conducted by an interdisciplinary team from several institutions and headed by Professor Henrik Birkedal of the Department of Chemistry and the Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center, Aarhus University, Denmark, and Professor David Kisailus of the Department of Chemical and Environmental Engineering in the Bourns College of Engineering.
