Electronic jelly: Engineering the mechanics of hydrogels for flexible electronics
By unifying mechanical reinforcement strategies—double networks, structural ordering, and dynamic interactions—this review demonstrates how engineered hydrogels can transcend their fragility to achieve the strength, toughness, and reliability required for flexible electronics, including wearable sensors, energy devices, and soft robotic systems ...

Self‐Expanding Cardiovascular Stents: Potentials and Challenges of Shape Memory Biomaterials
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases affect a large portion of the global population and remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Endovascular stenting, a minimally invasive procedure, enables the insertion and deployment of stents to restore arterial patency without open surgery.

Electrospun bioresorbable polymer membranes for coronary artery stents
Percutaneous coronary intervention, a common treatment for atherosclerotic coronary artery lesions, occasionally results in perforations associated with increased mortality rates. Stents coated with a bioresorbable polymer membrane may offer an effective solution for sealing coronary artery perforations.

This work presents a 3D hybrid tissue scaffold inspired by bone, incorporating collagen, fabricated using multiphoton lithography. The mechanical properties of collagen are tunable, and biodegradation allows for time‐dependent changes in geometry. The results demonstrate enhanced osteogenic differentiation of stem cells in our hybrid scaffolds.
