Abstract

Abstract : Theories suggest that ancient Egyptians believed that the bones of gods were made of iron. Indeed, iron has been suggested as a key material in implantable biodegradable medical devices. In article number1805006, Sangwon Kim, Bradley J. Nelson, Salvador Pané, and co‐workers describe how to manufacture three‐dimensional fully iron magnetic microrobots for biomedical applications using two‐photon polymerization and electrodeposition.
