Inspired by the intricate microstructure of cicada wings, researchers developed a novel in situ skeleton‐graphene membrane architecture within lightweight foams. This bioinspired design dramatically enhances multifunctional performance: vibration attenuation time decreases by ∼83.3%, damping capacity increases by ∼179.3%, and compressive modulus rises ...

Reconfigurable self‐contact variable stiffness metamaterials based on shape memory polymers enable programmable stiffness switching. Static arrays store and encrypt information with immunity to electromagnetic interference, while asymmetric stiffness converts symmetric vibration into directional matter transport.

Repurposing the dense tumor stroma from a physical barrier into an anchoring scaffold, an engineered oncolytic adenovirus encoding IL15C‐CBD overcomes the immunosuppressive microenvironment in triple‐negative breast cancer. Intratumoral viral replication secretes this collagen‐anchored immunocytokine, forming a localized cytokine depot.
