About
Shikun Chen is a pioneering researcher in advanced biomaterials and flexible electronics, with a focus on conducting polysaccharide hydrogels for human–machine interaction. Their major contribution lies in resolving the longstanding contradiction between mechanical strength and linear deformation in soft electronic interfaces. Through molecular engineering of dissipative energy, Chen developed an ultrastretched, self-healing, and self-adhesive conducting hydrogel that achieves near-linear deformation under extreme strain—a breakthrough that overcomes critical skin-device interface challenges, including mechanical mismatch, adhesion failure, and biocompatibility concerns. This work, published in 2025 and already garnering early citations, demonstrates Chen’s ability to integrate materials chemistry with practical device design. Their achievements address a fundamental bottleneck in wearable technology, offering a platform for seamless, durable, and comfortable human–machine interaction. By harmonizing contradictory mechanical properties through rational molecular design, Chen has opened new pathways for next-generation epidermal electronics, prosthetics, and soft robotics. Their research continues to inspire innovations at the intersection of polymer science, bioelectronics, and interfacial engineering.
