Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The pre‐internalization phase of endocytosis remains poorly characterized at single‐cell levels. Single‐cell pre‐internalization mechanics are investigated using advanced robotic techniques. Cancer cells exhibit biphasic adhesion – rapid initial binding followed by reinforcement – while fibroblasts show gradual engagement.

Separation of Surface Grafted Microparticles via Light and Temperature
Small ScienceSeparation of equally sized particles distinguished solely by interfacial properties remains a highly challenging task. Herein, a particle fractioning method is proposed, which is suitable to differentiate between polymer‐grafted microparticles that are ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Spinal cord injury (SCI) poses significant challenges for regeneration due to a series of secondary injury mechanisms. How to use biomaterial approach to target the failed regeneration after SCI remains a critical challenge. This review systematically evaluates current strategies to optimize biomaterial topographies for neurite outgrowth, axonal ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A novel solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) to overcome interface instability in high‐energy‐density lithium metal batteries has been developed. By enhancing ionic conductivity, mechanical elasticity, and adhesion strength through all‐material UV‐crosslinking, the SPE ensures uniform lithium‐ion flow and stable performance—even after bending or cutting ...
