title = "Catechology: The Study of Mussel- and Insect-inspired Adhesion, Coating, and Chemoselective Reaction",
abstract = "Mussel-adhesive proteins are among the most influential proteins identified in biological systems and are applied in chemistry, materials science, biomedical engineering, and translational medicine. Understanding the wet-resistant interfacial adhesion principles in mussel adhesion has led to widespread applications in many fields of nanotechnology, biomedical science, energy production/storage devices, and environmental sciences. This chapter discusses the unique properties of mussel-inspired proteins and their synthetic mimetic materials, in which catechol is the key molecule involved in adhesion at interfaces.",
