We highlight recent developments in hydrogel materials with biological responsiveness built in. These 'smart' biomaterials change properties in response to selective biological recognition events. When exposed to a biological target (nutrient, growth factor, receptor, antibody, enzyme, or whole cell), molecular recognition events trigger changes in ...
