This study identifies small molecules that selectively bind to mucins in the gastrointestinal tract, enhancing localized drug delivery to the small intestine and stomach.

This paper develops e-GLUE, an electroadhesive hydrogel interface that enables prolonged mucosal retention and demonstrates its utility in GI theranostics.

This paper develops an ingestible, battery-free robotic interface for chronic gut electrostimulation, showing it can modulate ghrelin levels and has potential for treating gastrointestinal conditions.

This paper develops an ingestible capsule that detects short-lived inflammatory biomarkers in the GI tract using genetically engineered probiotic biosensors and wireless readout technology.
