Vitamin C‐Induced Photo‐Redox Threshold Enables High‐Fidelity Volumetric Printing of Collagen

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Tomographic volumetric printing (TVP) of native proteins is limited by uncontrolled background crosslinking. Here, vitamin C is introduced as a biocompatible redox regulator to establish a tunable nonlinear polymerization threshold response for TVP.

GaSex Nanoparticles Modulate Neutrophil Function and Mitigate NET‐Driven Osteogenic Impairment in Osteomyelitis Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) emerge as a critical repair‐limiting factor in osteomyelitis, driving osteoblast mitochondrial dysfunction and excessive PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy. Gallium–selenium nanoparticles (GaSex) scavenge reactive oxygen species, redirect neutrophils from NETosis toward bactericidal phagocytosis, eliminate methicillin‐

Mechanical Mapping of Thin Elastic Films and Living Cells With Spherical Tip Atomic Force Microscopy Probes at Large Indentations

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A new explicit semi‐analytical model for elasticity determination by AFM is presented using spherical probes. The model, validated with numerical simulations, is applied to the study of polyacrylamide hydrogel films and macrophage cells, showing excellent agreement with the experimental data. It is foreseen its wide applicability to obtain quantitative

4D–Printed Photothermally Actuated Soft Microgripper on an Optical Fiber Tip for Biomedical Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed a light–driven soft microgripper by 3D–printing a photo–crosslinkable, temperature–responsive hydrogel with embedded silver particles onto an optical fiber tip. The microgripper actuates via photothermal effects at cell culture temperature and can gently grasp spheroids without minimal damage, offering a compact, actuator ...

Autonomous Reconfigurable Modular Conductive Hydrogels for Adaptive and Degradable Bioelectronic Interfaces

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Bridging rigid electrodes with soft, irregular tissues demands more than conductivity alone. Modular conductive hydrogels autonomously reconfigure into conformal electrode‐tissue interfaces, coupling mixed ionic‐electronic conduction with tissue‐like mechanics, self‐healing, and degradability.

Local Culture Integration in English Language Teaching Materials

PEBSAS: Jurnal Pendidikan Bahasa dan Sastra
The integration of culture in English Language Teaching (ELT) has become increasingly important as language is recognized as a social and cultural practice. In many EFL contexts, ELT materials are predominantly oriented toward Western cultures, which may create a cultural gap between learning content and learners’ lived experiences.
