Organization profile
The Center of Excellence in Life-Inspired Hybrid Materials (LIBER) was launched via the Academy of Finland's Center of Excellence Programme (2022-2029). LIBER aims to create dynamic and soft hybrid materials with capability to learn, adapt or response to the environment.
LIBER consortium includes eight multidisciplinary research groups from Aalto University, VTT and Tampere University. LIBER combines expertise on molecular self-assembly, soft robotics, surfaces and interfaces, genetic engineering of proteins, biotechnological production of engineered biomolecules, and computational modelling.
Director: Prof. Markus Linder, Aalto University, School of Chemical Engineering
Vice-director: Prof. Jaakko Timonen, Aalto University, School of Science
