I've started off this article but don't really know enough about VD's work to say more about it. Reading his CV and personal statements, it looks like he has done/is doing fascinating work at the interface of biological and synthetic materials, e.g. the stuff on metallic wood. It would be great if someone could please expand this. Also, I talk about "micro-architectured materials" without explaining what they are. Would it be helpful to have an entire article about this? I'm thinking there's a risk casual readers could confuse with "microarchitecture" (the computer term) and it would be good to have a clear explanation? 45154james (talk) 10:55, 7 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
