Autonomous Spatiotemporal Regulation of Reversible Hydrogel Actuators by Chemical Reaction Networks

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrogel actuators with reversible response to thiols are developed using reversible binding of thiols to Michael acceptors. Autonomous spatiotemporal regulation of reversible movement of these hydrogels is achieved using thiol‐based chemical reaction networks containing both positive and negative feedback.

Macrophages Mediate Mesoscale Brain Mechanical Homeostasis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We investigated the role of infiltrating immune cells in sculpting the developing brain. Using Brillouin microscopy and active microrheology, we found microglia actively maintain tissue viscoelasticity. Moreover, colony stimulating factor one receptor (CSF1R)‐driven stromal remodeling alters brain mechanics in vivo. These findings link immune activity,

High‐Efficiency Enrichment Device for Foodborne Pathogens: Nanocellulose‐Chitosan Aerogel as the Core

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The CNF‐CS aerogel developed in this study eliminates the need for biological modification or complex conjugation processes. When integrated with a micro‐device, it enables rapid and efficient enrichment and recovery of foodborne pathogenic bacteria from sample matrices.

Direct Ink Writing 3D Printing of Recyclable and Thermally Stable Vitrimers

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Vitrimers hold great promise in additive manufacturing as defect‐insensitive, repairable, and recyclable feedstocks. A thin‐film additively manufactured process is developed for a high‐performance vitrimer that is difficult to process traditionally.

Near‐Infrared Lifetime Nanothermometry Detects Microwave‐Induced Brain Heating

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Ag2S near‐infrared lifetime nanothermometers enable remote, minimally invasive readout of absolute brain temperature in vivo during telecommunication‐grade 3 GHz microwave exposure. Temperature‐dependent luminescence decay tracks real‐time heating in deep tissue, revealing rises approaching 4 °C and allowing systematic assessment of exposure parameters,

Accelerating Luminescence in Nanostructures: Exploring the Physical Limits and Impact of Ultrafast Emission in Nanoscale Materials

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in accelerating luminescence in nanostructures through cooperative emission, resonator coupling, and nonlocal light–matter interactions. By unifying concepts such as excitonic superradiance, superfluorescence, and the plasmonic Purcell effect, it reveals physical limits of ultrafast emission and their potential ...

Polyethyleneimine‐Modified Biosorbent Based on Banana Pseudostem Biomass for Environmental Remediation and Food Analysis

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Biosorbents derived from banana pseudostem are functionalized with polyethyleneimine, with or without glutaraldehyde, and evaluated for dye removal and solid‐phase extraction. The materials exhibit high adsorption capacities and broad pH applicability in dye removal, while computational studies reveal amino groups as key interaction sites.

Identification of PKN2 and MOB4 as Coordinators of Collective Cell Migration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a genetic screen, PKN2 and MOB4 are identified as two proteins regulating the healing of an epithelial model wound. PKN2 promotes collective cell migration by maintaining the cohesion of cell monolayers from their lateral junctions, whereas MOB4 restrains collective cell migration and provides a lamellipodial cue for front‐rear polarity in ...

Hyperelastic Starch Hydrogel Configures Edible and Biodegradable All‐Components for Soft Robots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperelastic starch hydrogel is tailored via a phase separation strategy of solvent‐antisolvent co‐modulation. The mechanical performance of starch hydrogel is widely tuned with maximum strains: 194.4–361.4%; maximum tensile stresses: 34–192 kPa; and Young's moduli: 36.0–205.8 kPa. Notably, the hydrogel achieves complete soil degradation within 24 days
