Congrats to Lainie Beauchemin and Zijuan Liang for presenting their work at the Carnegie Mellon Forum on Biomedical Engineering on September 19, 2025. We are delighted to announce that Zijuan won The Best Abstract award for her poster abstract, and she was invited to give The Best Abstract Talk at the forum! Many thanks for the organizers of the CMU BME Forum for such an exciting event.

Congratulations to Vismaya Walawalkar for winning a Best Talk Award at the 2025 Fall ACS meeting's symposium on "Nanoscale Tools to Understand the Physical Biology of a Cell".

Thank you to the organizers of the workshop, Profs. Divita Mathur, Alexander Marras and Carlos Castro!

Taryn's review "Microswimmers That Flex: Advancing Microswimmers with Templated Assembly and Responsive DNA Nanostructures" was published in Accounts of Materials Research. This invited review and perspective describes recent progress towards experimental realization of responsible microswimmers made with compliant DNA components.

Congrats to Taryn and co-advisor Prof. Sarah Bergbreiter on providing this exciting and useful guide to the micro/nanorobotics community!
