The realm of biomaterials engineering has witnessed transformative growth with the advent of functional hydrogels—polymeric networks engineered for ...

Millimeter-scale hydrogels form reversible, stimulus-responsive assemblies that encode high-density data, offering a dynamic alternative to static printed codes for adaptive information storage.

The ideal material for interfacing electronics with living tissue is soft, stretchable, and just as water-loving as the tissue itself--in short, a hydrogel. Semiconductors, the key materials for ...

Scientists have developed data-driven hydrogels that stick instantly and strongly underwater, using protein-inspired polymer design and machine learning to boost performance in marine and biomedical ...
