Compartmentalized Jet Polymerization as a High‐Resolution Process to Continuously Produce Anisometric Microgel Rods with Adjustable Size and Stiffness

Advances in Materials, 2019
In the past decade, anisometric rod‐shaped microgels have attracted growing interest in the materials‐design and tissue‐engineering communities. Rod‐shaped microgels exhibit outstanding potential as versatile building blocks for 3D hydrogels, where they ...

Stress‐Adaptive Biomaterials With Tunable Yielding Architectures Regulate Organoid Morphogenesis

Small, EarlyView.
Granular hydrogels are developed to tune the yield stress levels at which 3D tissue culture matrices undergo plastic deformation. We use these materials to regulate growth‐induced stresses, with demonstrable effects on cancer spheroid invasion and brain organoid morphogenesis.

Reconciling Granular Hydrogel Microstructure and Mechanics via a Temporary Thermo‐Responsive and Cell‐Invadable Matrix

Small, EarlyView.
Thermo‐responsive granular hydrogels (TRGHs), composed of microparticles and an interstitial matrix, exhibit thermo‐responsive mechanical properties and allow cell infiltration. This system effectively addresses the conventional compromise between mechanical strength and porosity observed in granular hydrogels.

Advancing Type 1 Diabetes Treatment: 3 PM‐Oriented Innovations in Islet Transplantation and Biomaterial Engineering

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 6, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disorder marked by the immune‐mediated destruction of pancreatic β‐cells, resulting in insulin deficiency and dysregulated glucose control. Current therapies—such as insulin replacement and artificial pancreas systems—manage symptoms but fail to restore endogenous β‐cell function or halt disease ...

Surviving the Nucleus Pulposus Desert: Next‐Generation Strategies for Intervertebral Disc Cell Therapy

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACTBackgroundLow back pain remains the leading cause of disability worldwide, with intervertebral disc degeneration representing a major biological contributor. Although cell‐based therapies have shown promise in preclinical models, clinical translation has yielded modest and inconsistent outcomes.

Structure Formation in Dairy Cheese and Plant‐Based Cheese Analogues: A Review

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
In this review, structure formation in dairy cheese and plant‐based cheese analogues is analyzed following a multi‐length scale perspective. Particular emphasis is placed on the distinction between bottom‐up assembly, characteristic of natural dairy cheese, and top‐down structuring, typical of processed cheese and cheese analogues.

Bioinspired Hierarchically Interconnected Supermacroporous Hydrogels via Dual‐Templating for Rapid Atmospheric Water Harvesting

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 64, 10 August 2026.
Inspired by lung alveolar architecture, a dual‐templating strategy combining CO2 bubble and ice templating creates mechanically robust super‐macroporous hydrogels with highly interconnected transport pathways. The resulting material achieves 3.37× faster moisture sorption and 1.72× higher solar‐driven water release than single‐templated counterparts ...
