In this review, we focus on the very recent developments on the use of the stimuli responsive
properties of polymer hydrogels for targeted drug delivery, tissue engineering, and …

There is a growing interest in the development of technologies to probe and direct in vitro
cellular function for fundamental organoid and stem cell biology, functional tissue and …

Hydrogels exhibit water-insoluble three-dimensional polymeric networks capable of
absorbing large amounts of biological fluids. Both natural and synthetic polymers are used …

Engineered living materials (ELMs) are gaining traction among synthetic biologists, as their
emergent properties and nonequilibrium thermodynamics make them markedly different …

Controlling chemical reactivity has been the central theme in chemistry. Herein, we review
the recent progress on the development of genetically encoded protein coupling reactions …

Fluorescent polymeric hydrogels are promising soft and wet media for information storage
