Outreach

Bio-Inspired Science & Technology (BIST)

Prof. Boreyko is a founding member of the Bio-Inpsired Science & Technology (BIST) Center, which provides a collaborative platform for interdisciplinary research between engineering and the life sciences.  If you are interested in being a part of BIST, we are currently meeting on Fridays at 12:30pm in Goodwin 341 for pizza and discussions. 

Art & Science Integration

Prof. Boreyko believes that art is a powerful way to communicate scientific concepts, both to technical and general audiences.  Sallie Wolf, an artist based in Chicago, provided a watercolor illustration to complement the journal article ‘Dynamic morphologies of microscale droplet interface bilayers’, which was featured on the back cover of Soft Matter.  He has also collaborated with Mary Katherine Chin, an art teacher at Woodland Elementary School in Oak Ridge, TN, to create the artwork and logo for his Nature-Inspired Fluids & Interfaces Lab.  If you are an artist or photographer interested in collaborating with Prof. Boreyko, please contact him at boreyko@vt.edu.
