Robert A. Nawrocki's research focuses on flexible and organic electronics, including ultrathin, bendable transistors, circuits, and sensors made from organic (carbon-based) semiconducting materials. A major thrust of his work is organic neuromorphic engineering, which involves building soft, flexible electronic components that mimic how neurons and synapses in the brain process information, aiming toward wearable or biologically compatible computing devices and skin-like sensors.
