The Beautiful World of Arthropods

Many insects and spiders have structures with unique features that give them incredible abilities. These structures are made of building blocks that organize themselves into complex patters at different levels to eventually function together. Our group studies one of the nature’s most abundant building block called chitin to understand the principles of its organization and bio-chemi-physical interactions.
