A modular biosynthetic PVA–gelatin hydrogel crosslinked via visible‐light thiol‐ene chemistry is engineered as a coating for neural electrodes. Optimizing matrix composition and mechanical properties enables the hydrogel to support astrocytic populations that guide neural differentiation and functional maturation.

This work shows, for the first time, that the stereocilia membrane in cochlear hair cells is dynamically regulated by the mechanotransduction channel to impact the membrane mechanical properties. This work provides direct evidence that the opening and closing associated with the MET channel is regulating the membrane viscosity suggesting that the MET ...

The study by Brauer et al. presents an operationally simple scraping technique in combination with 3D‐µCP to generate 3D cell patterns on both, front and the reverse side of a micro thermoformed substrate. It can be used to study cell‐to‐cell crosstalk at the microlevel with topographies similar to real tissue. Abstract 3D‐microcontact printing (3D‐µCP)

ABSTRACT Background Digital participatory surveillance (DPS) may provide information on reported influenza‐like illnesses (ILI). Combining DPS with laboratory testing allows pathogen identification. We assessed the feasibility of DPS and home‐based self‐swabbing (HBSS) in South Africa.

AAV‐Driven miR‐146a Promotes Neurite Outgrowth and Axonal Regeneration in Cortical Neurons
In the adult central nervous system (CNS), neuronal regeneration after injury is limited, resulting in poor functional recovery. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small noncoding RNAs that control gene expression, have gained attention as potential therapeutic agents, although their contribution to CNS repair remains insufficiently understood.

Identification of Novel Growth Factor Conjugated Nanofibers for Stimulation of Neuronal Growth
In this study, novel hybrid nanofibers composed of self‐assembling peptides (SAPs) conjugated with peptides derived from two growth factors (GFs), FGF2 and IGF1, were produced (FGF2‐SAP and IGF1‐SAP). Those hybrid nanofibers stimulated cellular growth of primary mouse neurons.
