Hydrogel Ribbons The cover image illustrates thermoresponsive hydrogel ribbons that curl and interlock at body temperature to form a porous hemostatic network. Surface functionalization with Laponite–polydopamine nanoparticles enhances adhesion and promotes rapid clot activation. Together, the shape-morphing architecture and bioactive coating highlight a multifunctional injectable platform for fast and effective hemorrhage control. Art by the team of INMYWORK Studio.
