Science Outreach Centre conceived and organized a popular science exhibition called Science Inspired by Nature.
People have always been inspired by nature, recognizing that it offers solutions to many challenges and complex situations. Being a part of nature ourselves, we realized that it is a source of creativity and innovation, and its study and imitation enabled us to develop many revolutionary technologies and designs that have improved our life and work.
Bio-inspired science is an area where scientists get inspiration from nature to solve complex human problems and to obtain improvements and innovations in technology.
As part of the exhibition, we present examples of bioinspiration in various scientific fields that University of Rijeka scientists deal with. We believe that we have encouraged you to appreciate nature, the preservation of which is not only a prerequisite for our life but also the key to the prosperity of life on Earth, including us humans. Therefore, we should perceive nature less as a material resource that we exploit, and more as an inspiration to solve the enormous challenges of today and create a sustainable future.
Albert Einstein said: “Look deep into nature and you will do anything.” understand better”.
