Dynamic Soft Materials for Human-electronics Biointerfacing

Dynamic soft materials-based bioelectronic technologies can be integrated onto the surface of human skin, tissue or even vital organs, where the interface provides soft mechanical coupling and facilitates efficient electrical/optical/thermal/chemical exchange.

This special issue will present the state-of-the-art research on the human-electronics biointerfacing through the functional soft materials, which featured highly desired adaptiveness, bioadhesion, mechanical compliance, electronic conductivity, and/or stimuli-responsiveness.

We also invite submissions of cross-disciplinary research among e-skin, implantable bioelectronics, transient bioelectronics, bioadhesion, electrophysiological recording and modulation; as well as bio-inspired and bio-integrated design and fabrication of functional soft materials through multi-length scale hierarchical control and advanced manufacturing.

Topics covered:

• Dynamic hydrogels
• Bioadhesion
• Biointerface
• Hydrogel bioelectronics
• Biointerfacing

Important Deadlines:

• Submission deadline: Jun 30, 2025.

Submission Instructions:
