A hyper-redundant manipulator [PDF]
, 1994 “Hyper-redundant” manipulators have a very large number of actuatable degrees of freedom. The benefits of hyper-redundant robots include the ability to avoid obstacles, increased robustness with respect to mechanical failure, and the ability to perform ...

Design and Synthesis of Peptide‐Polyester Conjugates for Cell‐Mediated Scaffold Degradation
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This work describes polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based biomaterials engineered to degrade in response to cell‐secreted proteases. A fast‐degrading peptide (Fast) sequence is integrated into a PCL conjugate backbone to produce a biomaterial that is selectively degraded by multiple cell types compared to its scrambled control (ScrFast).

Isolated carpometacarpal dislocation of the thumb: a case report
Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2021 The traumatic fracture-dislocation of the first carpometacarpal joint is not frequent, isolated dislocation being even more uncommon. A twenty-five-year-old male patient was diagnosed as having carpometacarpal dislocation of the thumb by means of ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This work pioneers melt electrowriting (MEW) of polyethylene vinyl acetate (PEVA) to fabricate ultra‐compliant, high‐resolution scaffolds. By integrating microscale precision with soft tissue‐like biomechanics, PEVA overcomes stiffness‐driven limitations of conventional MEW polymers, establishing a mechanically biomimetic platform for soft tissue ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Surface polarization of PVDF films combined with mechanical stimulation generates piezoelectric electrical cues that modulate cardiomyoblast behaviour. Non‐poled and poled PVDF substrates provide distinct electroactive microenvironments influencing cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation.
