The design and exploration of biomaterials plays a pivotal role in many fields, including medical and engineering. The prevailing approach to biomaterials discovery relies on orthogonal experiments, with repeated attempts to optimize experimental con...
In this study, we utilized machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) to investigate the nucleation mechanisms of calcium phosphate, a critical component of bone and teeth. Our analysis encompassed the process from pre-nucleation stage to the gr...
The surface modification of titanium (Ti) and its alloys is crucial for improving their osteogenic capability, as their bio-inert nature limits effective osseointegration despite their prevalent use in orthopedic implants. However, these modification...
Organ function depends on the three-dimensional integrity of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The structure resulting from the location and association of ECM components is a central regulator of cell behavior, but a dearth of matrix-specific analysis...
Our brain undergoes significant micro- and macroscopic changes throughout its life cycle. It is therefore crucial to understand the effect of aging on the mechanical properties of the brain in order to develop accurate personalized simulations and di...
Biomaterials with osteoinductivity are widely used for bone defect repair due to their unique structures and functions. Machine learning (ML) is pivotal in analyzing osteoinductivity and accelerating new material design. However, challenges include c...
Traditional robotic devices are often bulky and rigid, making it difficult for them to adapt to the soft and complex shapes of the human body. In stark contrast, soft robots, as a burgeoning class of robotic technology, showcase exceptional flexibili...
pH fluctuations within the extracellular matrix (ECM) and its principal constituent collagen, particularly in solid tumors and chronic wounds, may influence its structure and function. Whereas previous research examined the impact of pH on collagen f...
Biohybrid magnetic microrobots (BMMs) have emerged as an exciting class of microrobots and have been considered as a promising platform in biomedicine. Many microorganisms and body's own cells show intriguing properties, such as morphological charact...
Acantharia (Acantharea) are wide-spread marine protozoa, presenting one of the rare examples of strontium sulfate mineralization in the biosphere. Their endoskeletons consist of 20 spicules arranged according to a unique geometric pattern named Mülle...
