Louis A. van der Elst works in engineering, focusing on advanced functional materials and fiber-based devices that can sense and interact with their environment. Recent projects include fiber-based antennas for detecting proximity and stress, and electrically active ('electroceutical') fiber devices designed to limit bacterial growth in wounds. Additional work spans robotic prosthetics using shape memory alloys and, more recently, computational studies of natural language processing.
