“These are the first flexible electronics that are at once highly conductive and stretchable, fully biocompatible, and able to be fabricated conveniently across size scales with micro-feature precision,” Xingyu Jiang, a coauthor on the paper, says in a statement. “We believe that they will have broad applications for both wearable electronics and implantable devices.”
