Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study reports that when a gel‐gel interface is intentionally introduced into a hydrogel via two‐step polymerization, the polymer networks near the interface spontaneously align perpendicular to it. By employing a photo‐initiator system to spatially control the gel‐gel interface, anisotropic hydrogels with programmable orientations of polymer ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The photothermally powered microgel is designed to mechanically train mesenchymal stem cells using spatially patterned exogenous forces in three‐dimensional (3D) workspaces. When microgels are activated selectively via photothermal actuation, locally confined tens of nN forces are exerted on cells, triggering osteogenic differentiation in encapsulated ...
