Session: Sustainable, Nature-Inspired, Green Materials for Energy, Environmental and Biomedical Applications: Session II (Invited Talks)

Natural living systems offer unmatched capabilities which scientists are leveraging or taking as inspiration from to revolutionize the design of low cost, environment-friendly, and efficient materials over the last few decades. This topical conference (all-invited talks) covers this rapidly evolving field. Topics include synthesis and design of green, sustainable, nature-derived (e.g., cellulose, lignin, proteins) and nature-inspired materials, their structure-property relationships, biomass valorization approaches, and applications in sustainable energy (like, energy conversion and storage devices), environmental (like, carbon capture, plastic upcycling) and biomedical applications.
