A Hydro‐Expansive and Degradable Biomaterial Enabling Shape Recovery of Film‐Based Devices in Biofluids

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A chitosan‐based bio‐composite exhibits stable and strong tensile strength during volumetric expansion in body fluids, serving as a functional coating that enables a thin film‐based device to self‐flatten from its tubular shape required for catheter delivery.

Catheter ablation for cardiac arrhythmias

BMJ, 2000
The first diagnostic electrocardiography on a person was carried out by Augustus Waller over a century ago at St Mary's Hospital, London. It was not until the 1980s that therapeutic cardiac electrophysiology emerged; this procedure, carried out while patients are conscious, uses wires passed percutaneously to the heart to ablate the cause of ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

A Modular, Lego‐Like Microfluidic Platform for Multimodal Analysis of Biofilm Formation and Antimicrobial Response

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A modular microfluidic platform with integrated electrodes enables real‐time, label‐free monitoring of biofilm formation, treatment, and regrowth. The system evaluates both antibiotic response and antimicrobial coating efficacy on P. aeruginosa. Its LEGO‐like design supports dynamic migration studies, offering a clinically relevant, scalable tool for ...
