Information processing in soft materials.
WG2 · Aim
Information processing in soft materials
Build the chemical capability for local information processing and decision-making. Reaction networks show behaviour from bistability and oscillation to history-dependent decisions; kinetic modelling and automated platforms help embed them in materials that pattern, remember and choose.
Tasks
- T2.1 Bring together systems chemistry, mathematical modelling, microfluidics and laboratory automation
- T2.2 Train participants on microfluidics, CRN design and mathematical modelling
WG leader: elected at the kick-off meeting on 1 November 2026.
