Researcher on 'prosthetic skin' and 'wearable' electronics

Dr Stephanie Lacour, an assistant professor at Switzerland's Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, shows the BBC around her lab and describes what flexible electronics could do.

She talks about how they could be used to make 'prosthetic skin' for artificial limbs which would give some sensory feedback to the user, and about how they could even be used in clothing.
