Conductive Hydrogels for Exogenous Sensing and Cell Fate Control
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We engineer electrically conductive hydrogels by combining sulfated glycosaminoglycans with semiconducting polymers. These hydrogels bind bioactive proteins, including growth factors, whose release or retention can be modulated by low‐voltage stimulation. The hydrogels are also integrated as 3D channels in organic electrochemical transistors as part of

Multifunctional Oxadiazole‐Based Polycatenars: A Pathway to Polar Columnar Phases
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Aromatic core fluorination directs oxadiazole‐based polycatenars into ferroelectric and antiferroelectric columnar phases with supergelation and photo‐responsiveness. ABSTRACT Polar columnar liquid crystals (LCs) offer a promising pathway to nanostructured architectures for next‐generation ferroelectric devices.

Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

Additively Manufactured Porous Ceramics as Tunable Dielectrics for Passive Temperature Sensing
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Porous ceramic lattices, 3D‐printed from a multicomponent oxide ink, are integrated with LC resonators for passive wireless temperature sensing. By tuning porosity, the dielectric properties and RF response are engineered to produce distinct resonant frequency shifts with temperature. The results establish a structure‐driven approach to customizing the
