Research to examine whether ‘strong as steel’ spider silk can be replicated for manufacturing
UNSW Sydney has been awarded a grant to assess mimicking spider silk for use in clothing, medical devices and prosthetics.
UNSW Sydney researchers will examine whether spider silk can be replicated to be used in military and sports clothing, and medical devices and prosthetics as part of an international study funded by the PLuS Alliance.
The project, led by Dr Sean Blamires from the Evolution & Ecology Research Centre, UNSW Science, was selected after a call for submissions from researchers at King’s College London (KCL), UNSW Sydney and Arizona State University (ASU).
