Friday, May 27, Carlos Rego, Logoplaste Innovation Lab Design Manager & Biomimicry Specialist, speaks about “Evolving from human to life centered innovation”

As part of the 2022 France-Portugal Season, the Museu Nacional de História Natural e da Ciência, Universidade de Lisboa (MUHNAC) and the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris (MNHN) are working together to promote Bioinspiration as a cross-cutting scientific and social issue.

Bioinspiration involves drawing insights from nature and imitating its principles to innovate in response to current social and environmental challenges. By studying nature in all its forms (animals, plants, fungi, etc.) we can learn to develop objects, materials, strategies, and innovative processes that have the potential to be safer, more efficient and more eco-friendly for future generations.

Bioinspiration is an opportunity to create visible bridges between biodiversity and its contribution to modern society.
