| Abstract Scope |
Emerging soft bioelectronics holds the great potential to transform personalized healthcare by seamlessly integrating with biological tissues for monitoring, diagnosis, and treatment of various diseases. However, challenges persist in areas such as their long-term biocompatibility, reliable biosignal recording under dynamic everyday settings, and rapid prototyping. In this talk, I will discuss our research endeavors that tackle these challenges by creating multifunctional porous soft bioelectronics from a variety of nanomaterials, such as graphene, liquid-metal particles, silver nanowires, and cellulose nanofibrils. The device examples include electrophysiological sensors (e.g., electroencephalogram sensors, electrocardiogram sensors, electromyogram sensors), temperature sensors, hydration sensors, sweat biochemical sensors (e.g., pH sensors, glucose sensors, sodium ion sensors, ammonium sensors), and bioelectronic neural probes. In addition, the enabled multifunctional porous bioelectronics exhibit ultrasoftness, high breathability, outstanding antimicrobial property, thermal-management capability, and conformal contact with biological tissues, which can record biosignals in a long-term biocompatible and high-fidelity manner even under dynamic conditions. |
