Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Muscle degeneration in aging Drosophila flies: the role of mechanical stress

open access: yesSkeletal Muscle
Muscle wasting is a universal hallmark of aging which is displayed by a wide range of organisms, although the causes and mechanisms of this phenomenon are not fully understood. We used Drosophila to characterize the phenomenon of spontaneous muscle fiber

Spatially Programmable Electroadhesive Enables In Situ Site‐Selective Functional Coupling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A light‐activated, in situ spatially programmable bioadhesive (STICH) enables microscale, site‐selective integration of bioelectronic devices with wet tissue. It achieves robust mechanical bonding and low‐impedance electrical coupling, enabling reconfigurable neuromodulation and directional electromechanical sensing in vivo and ex vivo.

Engineering Aging: Approaches to Model and Deconstruct Biological Complexity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The macro‐experiences of aging are the result of an accumulation of micro‐changes that occur over time. Abstract The disparity between the global increase in life expectancy and the steady decline in health outcomes with age has been a major driver for developing new ways to research aging.

Thermal Annealing Enhances Piezoelectricity and Regenerative Potential of PVDF‐TrFE Nanofiber Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Thermal annealing improves the structure, stiffness, and piezoelectric properties of poly(vinylidene flouride‐trifluoroethylene) (PVDF‐TrFE) nanofiber scaffolds. These annealed scaffolds promote Schwann cell proliferation and matrix remodeling in vitro and demonstrate in vivo biocompatibility.

When Cellulose Moves: Smart Sensors and Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights cellulose‐derived soft actuators alongside with cellulose‐based sensors. Emphasis is placed on their integration into multifunctional devices that couple sensing and actuation to mimic natural motion and adaptability. We also discuss the challenges of achieving robust, reversible, and multi‐stimuli‐responsive motion, and outline ...

Post‐Processing Strengthened 3D Artificial Fingertip with Multi‐Intensity Pain Perception

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The 3D multi‐intensity pain‐perceptive artificial fingertip (HBAF) is designed, whose mechanical and conductive properties are highly improved via novel post‐processing. With the soft adhesive gel layer, which is grown on the base of HBAF, it is seamlessly assembled with the robotic hand and further evaluates the safe factor of gripping.
