Thanks to Marie Parra for inviting me to share a few words on camouflage and colours in nature for her very interesting and well researched article published in the quarterly magazine-book La Recherche: "L'invisible", available at newsstands and bookstores.
#ECE2026Tours
Check out and come participate in our symposium on "Biomimetism – From biological to bio-inspired photonic materials" as part of the themed session "Insects as Solutions" co-organized with @bodowilts.bsky.social
🥰 1,100+ abstracts submitted to #ECE2026Tours!
🌍 Scientists from 66 countries will bring a huge diversity of topics—#ECE2026Tours is set to be a global insect science hub 🐜
👉 Updates: ece2026.org
🪲 We are thrilled to announce our upcoming symposium on "Biomimetism – From biological to bio-inspired photonic materials" at the ECE2026 in Tours from 29/06 to 02/07/2026 - We hope to see you for an exceptional week of science 🪲
Abstracts and Early bird registration due 31/01/2026 #ECE2026Tours
Excited to share that our proposal on animal structural colors has been accepted by HFSP. This one is close to my heart, sitting right at the intersection of our lab's diverse interests. So grateful to be working with the dream team: @evolphotonics.bsky.social and Chuong lab (USC)!

Absolutely thrilled and humbled to announce our project proposal led by @kyogok.bsky.social, Cheng-Ming Chuong (@keck.usc.edu), and yours truly, has been awarded a RG. We look forward to integratively pushing the frontiers on the totally tubular physics and biology of animal structural colors.
