Abstract

Abstract : In article number 2000046, Milica Radisic and co‐workers design a biomaterial patch that incorporates an adhesive component to improve attachment. To achieve this, a novel polymer is synthesized with elastic properties tailored for cardiac patch applications and enhanced adhesion to tissue. In terms of application, this material is used to fabricate a dual‐component patch with distinct regions for adhesion and function.
