The self-assembly of biological molecules is an important pathway to understanding the
molecular basis of complex metabolic events. The presence of a cosolvent in an aqueous …

Here we introduce a tissue-adhesive patch with orthogonal cohesive and adhesive
chemistries; supramolecular ureido-4-pyrimidinone (UPy) cross-links provide cohesive …

Creatures in nature perform a variety of activities through adhesion behavior, including
moving flexibly and quickly on inclined and vertical walls and even ceilings. Studying the …

Chronic kidney disease affects one in six people worldwide. Due to the scarcity of donor
kidneys and the complications associated with hemodialysis (HD), a cell-based bioartificial …

The availability of realistic in vitro models is crucial for tissue engineering, disease modeling,
and drug screening assays. However, reproducing the complex shapes and intricate …

Supramolecular biomaterials based on hydrogen bonding units can be conveniently
functionalized in a mix-and-match approach using supramolecular additives. The …

Supramolecular motifs in elastomeric biomaterials facilitate the modular incorporation of
