This is a must attend! Hiroshi Ishii 石井 裕 Thanks for your passion in supporting the #UIST community !


after having multiple work/life/"worrying about the future" type crises this year,,, hearing from these wonderful mentors at the women's panel was really healing for me. Thank you Prerna Ravi, Wendy, Mira, Amy Pavel Alexandra Ion Lining Yao and Parastoo Abtahi! #UIST2024


Enormous & fun banquet at #UIST2024 huge kudos to local super chair Chris Harrison and general chairs Mayank Goel Lining Yao and great keynote Yaser Sheikh (Yaser Sheikh )


Thanks Qiuyu (Luca) Lu Qiuyu (Luca) Lu for all the contributions to #UIST2024, as a paper&demo&poster presenter, an Ask Me Anything co-chair, a session chair, and a PC for paper review! Qiuyu (Luca) Lu, from Morphing Matter Lab @ UC Berkeley, is on faculty job market!

Hosted by Prerna Ravi and Jack Forman, our diversity chairs at #UIST2024, we talked about work, mentoring, life, identity, and my little five-month old girl, in the Women's Lunch panel. Sharing the stage with Wendy Mackay, Mira Dontcheva,Amy Pavel Alexandra Ion Parastoo Abtahi



Giving two invited talks at #F24MRS. Programmable Degradation (SB11.03.01) and Hygromorphic Wood Actuators (SB03.08.01), both as examples of Sustainable Morphing Matter. mrs.org/meetings-event… Qiuyu (Luca) Lu Berkeley Mechanical Engineering Berkeley Engineering

101 of Morphing Matter in 101 seconds. by UC Berkeley @berkeley Berkeley Engineering BerkeleyME Morphing matter is an intellectual playground, one that sits at the intersection of science, design and nature. news.berkeley.edu/2025/07/03/ins…

Morphing Matter course, offered as an advanced design topic UC Berkeley Berkeley Engineering Berkeley Mechanical Engineering is among these: news.berkeley.edu/2025/08/29/fro…


AI and designers collaboratively design shape morphing bots that run, turn, morph, and manipulate, from a quadruped robot to morphing helmet.
