Bioelectronic interfaces, which facilitate the transduction of biological signals and the stimulation of biological organs/tissues, open new opportunities for various applications such as healthcare, robotics, sports, and e-games. These devices often require the conformal attachment of devices on the curvilinear human skin or organ surface and the long-term operational reliability even under severe mechanical deformation. For these purposes, many researchers have been searching for specialized constituent materials, particularly, targeting stretchable/flexible/soft conductors, semiconductors, and dielectrics, in conjunction with processing/integration methods toward robust high-performance devices.
This symposium covers the recent progress in advanced soft materials, processing, and device architectures for bio-electronic interfaces in the fields of healthcare, robotics, sports, and Internet of Things (IoTs), etc.
