Mucosa‐Interfacing Capsule for In Situ Sensing the Elasticity of Biological Tissues
A fundamental mechanism of palpating soft materials is reported to sense deep tissue elasticity in situ with minimal invasion using the interaction between the robot palpation unit and soft tissues. Both the robot locomotion and elasticity sensing functions are remotely controlled by external magnetic fields, while the sensing data are wirelessly ...

This research presents an easy to fabricate, low‐cost, flexible piezoresistive deformation sensor comprised of a carbon nanotube, few‐layer graphene, and polydimethylsiloxane composite. The sensor detects deformations and vibrations up to 600 Hz with 0.1% strain sensitivity from stiff and soft targets in dry and wet environments.

A chronological history of heart valve prostheses to offer perspectives of their limitations
Prosthetic heart valves (PHV) have been studied for around 70 years. They are the best alternative to save the life of patients with cardiac valve diseases. However, current PHVs may still cause significant disadvantages to patients.

This article investigates a sustainable approach to producing new powders for selective laser sintering by using high‐pressure homogenization to micronize biopolymers. The approach yields flowable, thermally stable particles with sub‐rounded morphology, enabling 3D printing of dense components with complex geometries.

Stopping a Multilayered Co‐Axial Flow in a 3D Printed Microchannel with Cascaded Nozzles
A microfluidic device with cascaded nozzles is 3D‐printed using two‐photon polymerization. Its microchannel, featuring integrated nozzles, sculpts multilayered co‐axial flows, enabling independent regulation of four co‐flowing streams to achieve variable layer thicknesses.

One‐Step Covalent Biofunctionalization of Tubular Constructs Enabled by Surface‐Embedded Radicals
Uniform covalent biofunctionalization of tubular constructs is achieved in one step using surface‐embedded radicals generated by a novel plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) technology. This scalable, solvent‐free technology advances bioengineered tubes for tissue engineering and implant applications.
