Proteins, Processing, and Properties of Adhesive Fluid Condensates Purified from Mussels
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Mussels exhibit an unmatched proficiency for adhering to wet surfaces in salty environments—a remarkable ability that could inspire new biomedical and technical glues. The fluid protein condensates used to form the underwater mussel glue are extracted, reconstituted and characterized with advanced spectroscopy and nanomechanical analysis, revealing ...

Real‐Time 3D Ultrasound Imaging with an Ultra‐Sparse, Low Power Architecture
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This article presents a novel, ultra‐sparse ultrasound architecture that paves the way for wearable real‐time 3D imaging. By integrating a unique convolutional array with chirped data acquisition, the system achieves high‐resolution volumetric scans at a fraction of the power and hardware complexity.

Liquid Metal Microrobots for Magnetically Guided Transvascular Navigation
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Liquid metal‐based microrobots combine magnetic steering, intrinsic X‐ray visibility and softness, to navigate blood vessels even against flow. Under clinically relevant magnetic fields, liquid metal microrobots roll along vessel walls, cross endothelial barriers, and accumulate in target tissues.
