Bio-inspired Biomedical Research by Dr. Knothe Tate

By Marianne Eppig on assignment for E4S

We survive because nature has provided us with nearly perfect living machines—our bodies. Its mechanisms allow us to procreate, heal, and regenerate cells; take any part of the body and there is some lesson to be learned. Think of bones: how do they build strength, adapt, and stay strong? Melissa Knothe Tate, Ph.D. has spent her career answering these questions by studying bone activity, which has in turn inspired her to… Continue

Mimicking Sea Cucumbers to Find Medical Solutions

Cutting Edge Bio-Inspired Materials Research by Christoph Weder and Stuart Rowan

By Marianne Eppig on assignment for E4S


When you look at a sea cucumber—an ocean floor-dwelling animal that looks like a giant slug—medical solutions might not be the first item that pops into your mind.

The Great Lakes Brewing Company: A Cleveland Ecosystem

By Marianne Eppig on assignment for E4S

The familiar smell of pizza greets you as you walk through the double doors, and the bartender smiles while pulling down on the tap handle in front of a full bar audience. The brick walls look as though they’ve been holding up this building for quite a while. The host seats you in the renovated Beer Garden, where a canvas roof and str

Victoria:
who is the spokesperson for biomimicry Northeast Ohio? Do you or could you serve in that capacity? I am interested in talking to someone that would be willing to represent the idea of biomimicry (they don't really need to represent the organization) and how it is sustainable and works in their life on a cable TV show called Sustainable Life. Do you know anyone that might be interested. Please have them call me at 561-309-6048. Thanks.

Victoria:

Thank you for the invitation and your time in reading my profile. Both are appreciated!

Some background, including a draft White Paper, is available on our website: www.ngbc.us/?page_id=26

I'm under a few deadlines today and this week...but will definitely add more to my profile when I can. I was excited to see your & this group's existence and good work, and wanted to at least complete a brief profile to complete later. I'm definitely more than happy to share more about the work in creating a local deconstruction infrastructure/economy using Biomimicry.

Thanks.

Great people! They are working on building a place where people can be treated in traditional ways for cancer and other ailments. The cattle will be kept and processed in the traditional ways of the vaqueros

The picture is of a saw whet owl that was hanging out at east 9th and St. Clair last winter.

Thanks, glad to be here. I am looking forward to learning more about biomimicry and applying it to some of our product in positioning technology.
