Article Synopsis
- Smart materials like protein hydrogels can change shape in response to stimuli, which could improve fields like medicine and robotics.
- This study presents a method to program these hydrogels, made from serum albumin, to shift shapes by altering their stiffness using metal cations (Zn or Cu).
- The programmed hydrogels can return to their original shape when the cations dissipate, showcasing their potential use as actuators in various applications.
