Researchers from the Lewis Lab at Harvard University recently reported a biomimetic 4D printing platform using hydrogel composite inks containing stiff cellulose fibrils embedded in a soft acrylamide matrix that change shape when immersed in water. By varying the nozzle diameter (ranging from 100...
