In order to produce anatomical models that feel realistic to the touch, artificial materials need
to be found that mimic tactile properties of biological tissues. The aim of this study was to …

A series of poly (ethylene glycol)(PEG) hydrogels was synthesized using strain-promoted
alkyne–azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) between PEG chains terminated with either aza …

One major challenge for microrobots is to penetrate and effectively move through
viscoelastic biological tissues. Most existing microrobots can only propel in viscous liquids …
