Printing Nacre‐Mimetic MXene‐Based E‐Textile Devices for Sensing and Breathing‐Pattern Recognition Using Machine Learning

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a Ti3C2Tx MXene/WPU nacre‐mimetic nanomaterial as a printable ink for direct‐write printing onto textiles‐based sensors. The resulting wearable device demonstrates high sensitivity, biocompatibility, and mechanical strength. Furthermore, NFC‐enabled humidity sensor produces time‐series data, which informs a machine learning ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Next‐Generation Bio‐Reducible Lipids Enable Enhanced Vaccine Efficacy in Malaria and Primate Models

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Structure–activity relationship (SAR) optimization of bio‐reducible ionizable lipids enables the development of highly effective lipid nanoparticle (LNP) mRNA vaccines. Lead LNPs show superior tolerability and antibody responses in rodents and primates, outperforming approved COVID‐19 vaccine lipids.
