The first chapter of this book delivers a general introduction about the field of shape memory alloys treated as a generic example of adaptive material.
Aizenberg, who is a Founding Core Faculty member of the Wyss Institute and Lead of its Adaptive Material Technologies Initiative, is a pioneer in the rapidly developing field of bioinspired materials science and engineering.
The research is part of broader work at the Wyss Institute on adaptive material technologies, led by Aizenberg, and is the first journal publication from the Adaptive Living Environment (ALivE) project, a collaboration between AMT and GSD supported by Wyss Institute.
The mechanism of adaptive material selection takes learners' different spatial ability and learning styles as an integral learning profile into account, and performs traits-based personalization of learning experience.

4/23 George Whitesides and Chuck Hoberman gave presentations during the Adaptive Material Technologies session at the retreat.
2/5 Wyss Institute Lead Staff Scientist Michael Aizenberg primarily works in the Programmable Nanomaterials and Adaptive Material Technologies platforms.
Given her broad range of research, she is active in most of the Wyss Institute Focus Areas: Adaptive Material Technologies, Bioinspired Robotics, Biomimetic Microsystems, Systems Biology, and Programmable Nanomaterials.
"Just by applying a little bit of shear force, you can achieve an enormous effect in how this light is guided," said Kim, who works with Wyss Institute Core Faculty member Joanna Aizenberg, Ph.D., on the Wyss Institute's Adaptive Material Technologies (AMT) platform.
