RESEARCH INTERESTS

Michael Weinstock’s research interest lies in exploring the convergence of Biomimetic Engineering, Architecture, Emergence and Material Sciences and has published widely on these topics since 1989. The potential of the convergence for the materialisation of intelligent materials, structures, and ultimately, the organisation of Cities, provides the motivation and suggests the long-term goal.
