David, prof. dr. Lentink
David Lentink is hoogleraar biomimetica aan de faculteit Science and Engineering en bestudeert alles wat door de lucht ‘zweeft en flappert’. Zo ontrafelt hij veel fascinerende trucjes in de natuur, die hij gebruikt om vliegende robots te ontwikkelen die efficiënter en flexibeler zijn. Hij is gefascineerd door de kunst van vliegen en legt in zijn lab vol windtunnels en lasers de link tussen het vliegen van vogels en robotica. Zijn interessegebied is daarom ook biomimetica, biomechanica, biofluïdynamica, luchtrobotica en bio-geïnspireerd ontwerp bij alles wat vliegt. Op dit moment integreert Lentink functionele morfologie, sensorisch-motorische controle, ecologie en evolutie in zijn vergelijkende biomechanische en fysiologische onderzoeken. Dit doet hij door middel van interdisciplinaire samenwerkingen die zich uitstrekken van engineering en natuurkunde tot biologie. Hij werkt daarmee samen met specialistische teams, studenten en technisch personeel.
