Shape-shifting 3D protein microstructures with programmable directionality via quantitative nanoscale stiffness modulation

The ability to shape-shift in response to a stimulus increases an organism's survivability in nature. Similarly, man-made dynamic and responsive “smart” microtechnology is crucial for the advancement of human technology. Here, 10–30 μm shape-changing 3D BSA protein hydrogel microstructures are...
