Mechanoresponsive Drug Release from a Flexible, Tissue‐Adherent, Hybrid Hydrogel Actuator (Adv. Mater. 43/2024)

Abstract

Soft Robotic Drug Delivery Micro-CT imaging of the hybrid hydrogel actuator (HHA) prototype showcasing its robust, flexible adhesion to tissue during dynamic actuation. This device enables tunable, mechanoresponsive drug delivery directly to the target site, presenting a transformative approach that integrates precisely controlled drug delivery with mechanical stimulation for enhanced localized therapeutic interventions.
