3D-printed implantable bioelectronics enabled by anti-swelling and biphasic conductive hydrogels

Hydrogel bioelectronics typically fail mechanically and electrically because of swelling in wet conditions. An anti-swelling hydrogel with minimal foreign-body reactions is reported and engineered into a supporting matrix and biphasic conductive ink, enabling the embedded 3D printing of implantable bioelectronics.
