Harnessing Next‐Generation 3D Cancer Models to Elucidate Tumor‐Microbiome Crosstalk
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Centralizes the microbiome within 3D tumor‐microbiome model platforms, including spheroids, organoids, 3D‐bioprinted constructs, and microfluidic chips, each enabling structured host‐tumor‐microbe studies. These systems support bacterial colonization, facilitating investigation of microbial impacts on tumor growth, immunity, and therapy. The microbiome

Gradients of Aliveness and Engineering: A Taxonomy of Fungal Engineered Living Materials
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This paper explores the potential of fungal engineered living materials (ELMs), examining fungal biology and growth mechanisms, which underpin their development. It presents a classification framework based on aliveness, scaffold composition, and engineering degree. Unique properties such as self‐healing, biosensing, and bioremediation are highlighted,
