Human Nervous System‐Based Biohybrid Robot‐On‐A‐Chip with Sensing Function for Toxicity Screening
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Human nervous system‐based biohybrid robot‐on‐a chip with eye function as sensing system in addition to brain/motor neuron/muscle functions is proposed. Upon light stimulation, the eye assembloid generates electrophysiological signals, which are transmitted through the cerebral organoid and motor neuron spheroid, inducing muscle movement.

Wearable Bioelectronics for Home‐Based Monitoring and Treatment of Muscle Atrophy
Advanced Science, EarlyView.As an inevitable disease, muscle atrophy has received more attention. Because the factors that induce this disease are diverse, achieving a complete cure is still impossible. Wearable bioelectronics provides a more comfortable, low‐cost, and efficient way of home care for the monitoring and treatment of muscle atrophy. Therefore, this review summarizes
