Summary
The emerging human machine interface is creating new opportunities for developing advanced sensing technologies with unparalleled sensitivity and specificity. This talk will explore key questions in the materials chemistry underlying bio-integrated electronics, focusing on achieving a deeper and clearer understanding of their fundamental principles. Emphasis will be placed on conformal bioelectronic interfaces, which allow seamless integration of electronics into biological systems, enabling sense digitalization while maintaining functionality under deformation. The talk will also address ongoing challenges that must be overcome to fully harness the transformative potential of conformal bioelectronics in human–machine interfaces.
