Researchers at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and other Chinese institutes developed a 3D integrated, flexible electronic skin, reported in Nature Electronics. This e-skin combines high-density inorganic components with organic [...]

Researchers from Rice University and Hanyang University have developed a new material that mimics skin's elasticity while maintaining signal strength in electronics, enabling next-generation wearable devices with continuous, wireless, battery-free [...]

SciBase Holding AB (SciBase), a leading developer of artificial intelligence (AI)-based solutions for skin disorders, announced the launch of the eBarrier Score for Nevisense, the first-ever AI skin barrier assessment [...]

Researchers at Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology have developed a new electromyography (EMG) sensor that is stretchable and sticks to the skin, reliably capturing muscle signals for wearable [...]

Researchers at Lanzhou University in China have created a wireless charging unit designed for placement beneath the skin to power internal bioelectronic devices. Successful rodent tests have demonstrated the potential [...]

Scientists at Harvard Medical School have shown for the first time that a common skin bacterium -- Staphylococcus aureus -- can cause itch by acting directly on nerve cells. The [...]

Researchers from the Munich Institute of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (MIRMI) at the Technical University of Munich have developed an automatic process for creating soft sensors. The framework uses software [...]

Researchers at Stanford University in California have created electronic skin capable of emulating the natural response of a finger, toe, or limb to stimuli like poking or scalding. Flexible e-skin [...]

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and their colleagues have identified genomic variants that cause a rare and severe inflammatory skin disorder, known as disabling pansclerotic morphea, and [...]

Donghua University researchers in China have developed an ionic skin for robots to mimic human fingertips. By forming and characterizing fingerprint patterns on soft material, researchers created a soft ionic [...]

Researchers from Dalian University of Technology have designed a new highly flexible and temperature-resistant artificial skin that also possesses antibacterial properties. The skin is a photonic-ionic system that emits optical [...]

The skin is an appealing route for drug delivery because it allows drugs to go directly to the site where they're needed, which could be useful for wound healing, pain [...]

A team of researchers at Johannes Kepler University has developed a way to narrow down the use of plastic in electronic devices that causes environmental hazards. Researchers came across Ganoderma [...]

Wearable technology can be used as precision medical sensors designed to perform health monitoring and diagnosis. Health diagnosis requires continuous monitoring as the measurements could differ depending on the person's [...]
