Machine‐Learning‐Aided Advanced Electrochemical Biosensors
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Electrochemical biosensors are highly sensitive, portable, and versatile. Advanced nanomaterials enhance their performance, while machine learning (ML) improves data analysis, minimizes interference, and optimizes sensor design. Despite progress in both fields, their combined potential in diagnostics remains underexplored.

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial
