Nowadays, textile and fiber research is considered a very applied field, which is hardly surprising given how old and mature the global textile industry is.
Historically, however, inventions that led to textile innovations have been often of fundamental nature, and many even recognized by Noble prizes in chemistry and physics.
In this webinar, Dr. Svetlana V. Boriska makes the case that fibers and textiles still offer an amazing playground for studying fundamental phenomena, which in turn may lead to advances in their functional properties and applications.
