À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode, we explore the groundbreaking world of self-healing materials with Elise Elsacker from Vrije University and Dimitri Floudas from Lund University. Curious how fungi can repair cracks in concrete or mimic leather? Tune in to find out!
As a sneak peek, we’ll discuss how fungal spores embedded in concrete activate when cracks form, and how fungal leather self-repairs to extend its lifespan—all while reducing waste and pollution.
Elise and Dimitri dive into the science behind these living materials, the environmental benefits, and the challenges of scaling such innovations from lab to market. Could fungi-based materials transform industries like fashion and construction?
