An Ergonomic Customizable Soft Robotic Glove Toward Personalized Hand Rehabilitation

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Soft robotic gloves for hand rehabilitation are often limited by poor fit and uneven pressure on the fingers. Here, the authors report an ergonomic all‐fabric glove whose dual‐action actuators are tailored to individual finger geometry by CNC heat sealing, with symmetrical chambers that distribute interface pressure more evenly. Weighing only 90 g, the

Dual‐Component Spidroin‐Based Hydrogels: A Mechanically Tunable Platform for 2D and 3D Cell Culture

Small, EarlyView.
A dual‐component recombinant spider silk hydrogel platform was developed by combining NT2RepCT with a bioactive vitronectin‐functionalized spidroin domain. The hydrogels self‐assemble under physiological conditions, exhibit tunable mechanical properties, and support 2D and 3D cell culture, providing a versatile platform for mechanobiological studies ...

Accelerated Surface Reconstruction in Double Perovskites: Enhancing Oxygen Evolution Reaction Activity Through Fe‐Doping

SusMat, EarlyView.
A novel double perovskite BaSrNi0.9Fe0.1WO6 (BSNFW) is developed with enhanced oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity owing to synergistic Ni‒Fe interactions occurring through bridging O species. This drives an accelerated surface reconstruction that equilibrates an oxidized and highly active surface configuration in situ, without the need for ...
