Zusammenfassung: | On page 80, D.‐H. Kim and co‐workers exploit bio‐inspired designs and geometries to create cephalopod‐inspired dry adhesives in combination with ultrathin stretchable electronics. The ultra‐low modulus (∼108 kPa) miniaturized suction cups support stretchable electronics and drug‐loaded therapeutic nanoparticles, enabling tight skin coupling without irritations. The integrated system allows continuous vital sign monitoring, controllable drug release, and wireless communication to external devices for remote data transmission and drug delivery actuation. |
