Tune in to the "Engineering With Nature (EWN)" podcast to hear Dr. Wangpraseurt sharing insights on bioinspired designs, and how this tech could enable more resilient coastal protection.

Featuring our collaborative research for developing new techniques to restore coral reefs, including using nanoparticles to reduce coral bleaching and 3D printing to create new coral structures.

Dr. Wangpraseurt explains Reefense R3D Project -  "hybrid living and artificial reefs" that shield coastlines, attract marine life, and even grow resilient corals to develop a hybrid living and artificial reef

Featured on UC San Diego - we join a $25M project to build "living" artificial reefs! These 3D-printed bio-havens protect shorelines, nurture corals, and adapt to sea level rise.

"3D Bioprinting Process Produces Living Coral Microhabitats" featured on Scripps news presenting 3D-print living coral as homes for algae, mimicking nature to study bleaching and aid restoration.

Three-dimensional printed coral-like structures were able to support the algae that live in real corals, which could help restore reefs and grow algae for bioenergy production.

Our work on using 3D printing to create bionic coral structures for both regenerating dying reefs and unlocking entirely new avenues for biomaterials and research.
