Review of Gastrointestinal Capsule Robots: Materials, Actuation, Diagnostics, and Therapeutics
This review examines gastrointestinal capsule robots through a systems engineering lens, covering shell materials, actuation and localization strategies, diagnostic modalities, therapeutic interventions, and commercialization status. By mapping the complete technological chain from fabrication to clinical deployment, this work identifies critical gaps ...

Single‐Step Electrochemical Aptasensor for Melatonin Detection in Unprocessed Plasma
Melatonin is a well‐known biomarker with significant potential for clinical use in diagnosing circadian rhythm sleep disorders (CRSDs) and monitoring patients with documented circadian clock disruption. An electrochemical aptamer‐based biosensor (E‐aptasensor), employing an optimized population of melatonin aptamers, has been proposed as a solution for

Allenes emerge as powerful platforms for electrochemical functionalization through radical pathways. Selective radical addition at the central carbon triggers anodic oxidation and intramolecular cyclization, enabling efficient synthesis of oxazolines and oxazolidine‐2‐imines without external oxidants.

A Robotic Testing Platform for Pipelined Discovery of Resilient Dielectric Elastomer Actuators
This work introduces a robotic testing platform enabling high‐throughput, multi‐parameter lifetime mapping of linear dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs). By integrating programmable high‐voltage control and automated electromechanical measurements, the system identifies material and operating conditions that double actuator lifetime.

A mechanically activated SynNotch reporter platform enables detection of force transmission through receptors as they mediate immune cell interactions. Targeting CD40 on B cells and TCR on T cells records force‐induced reporter activation across 2D coculture, 3D organoid, and implanted in mice, which also reveal force‐amplification of immune receptor ...
