We are thrilled to announce that Tiffany Cheng has been appointed as Tenure-Track Assistant Professor of Cornell University, and joins the Department of Design Tech starting on January 1, 2024!
Tiffany is a designer, architect, and robotic builder from Taiwan. She researches and develops computational fabrication processes for creating bioinspired structures with programmable self-shaping behaviors – from self-adjusting wearables to self-forming building components and self-regulating facades. At Cornell, Tiffany will establish the MULTIMESO Lab. By structuring materials across the micro, meso, and macro length scales, her lab will investigate the performance potential of natural and biobased materials for smarter and more sustainable forms of making.
Stay tuned for exciting work to come from the MULTIMESO Lab!
