DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nSkin is the body’s largest organ. It is responsibl
 e for the transduction of a vast amount of information. This conformable\,
  stretchable\, self-healable and biodegradable material simultaneously col
 lects signals from external stimuli that translate into information such a
 s pressure\, pain\, and temperature. The development of electronic materia
 ls\, inspired by the complexity of this organ is a tremendous\, unrealized
  materials challenge. However\, the advent of organic-based electronic mat
 erials may offer a potential solution to this longstanding problem. Over t
 he past decade\, we have developed materials design concepts to add skin-l
 ike functions to organic electronic materials without compromising their e
 lectronic properties. We developed various soft sensors for continuous mea
 surements\, including pressure\, strain\, shear\, temperature\, electrophy
 siological and neurotransmitter sensors. The above sensors and integrated 
 circuits are the foundations for soft bioelectronics and are enabling a br
 oad range of new tools for medical devices\, robotics and wearable electro
 nics.\n\n \n\nBio:\n\nBao is K.K. Lee Professor of Chemical Engineering\, 
 and by courtesy\, a Professor of Chemistry and a Professor of Material Sci
 ence and Engineering at Stanford University. Bao directs the Stanford Wear
 able Electronics Initiate (eWEAR) and the Taiwan Science and Technology Hu
 b @ Stanford. She is a CZ Biohub investigator since 2022 and an Arc Instit
 ute Innovation Investigator since 2023.\n\nPrior to joining Stanford in 20
 04\, she was a Distinguished Member of Technical Staff in Bell Labs\, Luce
 nt Technologies from 1995-2004. She received her Ph.D in Chemistry from th
 e University of Chicago in 1995. She has more than 700 refereed publicatio
 ns and over 80 US patents with a Google Scholar H-Index 211 and is one of 
 the world’s most highly cited scholars in the fields of chemistry and mate
 rial science. She is one of the Clarivate Citation Laureates in Chemistry 
 for her pioneering work on skin-inspired electronics.\n\nBao is a member o
 f the National Academy of Engineering\, the American Academy of Arts and S
 ciences and the National Academy of Inventors. She a foreign member of the
  Chinese Academy of Science. She has been serving on the Board of Director
 s of the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation and scientific affair commit
 tee from 2022.\n\nBao is a recipient of the VinFuture Prize Female Innovat
 or 2022\, the ACS Chemistry of Materials Award 2022\, MRS Mid-Career Award
  in 2021\, AICHE Alpha Chi Sigma Award 2021\, ACS Central Science Disrupto
 r and Innovator Prize in 2020\, Gibbs Medal 2020\, Wilhelm Exner Medal 201
 8\, ACS Award on Applied Polymer Science 2017\, L'Oréal-UNESCO For Women i
 n Science Award 2017.\n\nBao is a co-founder and on the Board of Directors
  for C3 Nano and PyrAmes\, both are silicon-valley venture funded start-up
 s. Research inventions from her group have been licensed and are foundatio
 nal technologies of multiple start-ups founded by her students. Bao serves
  as an advisor for Fusion Venture and Boutique Venture.\n\nBao has develop
 ed new molecular design concepts and fabrication processes to advance the 
 scope and applications of soft electronics. Her work has resulted in new o
 pportunities for soft robotics\, wearable and implantable electronics for 
 precision health\, precision mental health and advanced tools for understa
 nding neuroscience and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Her group 
 has developed foundational materials and devices that enabled a new genera
 tion of skin-inspired soft electronics. They provide unprecedented opportu
 nities for understanding human health and developing monitoring\, diagnosi
 s and treatment tools. A few recent examples include: an e-skin that can s
 ense force and temperature and directly communicate with brain\, a wireles
 s wound healing patch\, a soft NeuroString for simultaneous neurochemical 
 monitoring in the brain and gut\, soft high-density electrophysiological r
 ecording array\, a meta-learned skin sensor for detailed body movements\, 
 a reconfigurable self-healing electronic skin.\n\n \n\n \n\nMCSILS gratefu
