Dual‐Graded Microstructure Engineering for Flexible Piezoresistive Sensors with High Sensitivity and Broad Linear Range in Physiological Monitoring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A flexible piezoresistive pressure sensor with dual‐graded microstructures achieves both high sensitivity (69.8 kPa⁻¹) and a broad linear range up to 300 kPa (R2 = 0.997). Synergizing structural deformation and tunneling conduction, it enables rapid, stable, and accurate detection of subtle physiological signals, offering a scalable and cost‐effective ...

PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.
