Abstract
Designing biointegrated electronics for resilience starts at the molecular level, whereby “molecular architecture” dictates function. The ability to predict how variations in molecular level features translate to bulk polymer properties is critical for realizing large-scale bulk applications and opening avenues for niche applications. Inspired by architectural resilient design principles, this article reviews analogous principles for materials used in biointegrated electronics, including strategies to address mechanical mismatch, fouling, improper adhesion, and degradation within biological systems. Moreover, innovations in artificial intelligence and automation that will play an important role in elucidating new material design principles and their practical large-scale construction are discussed. Finally, alternative avenues for simplifying the production of future biointegrated electronics are proposed, such as using self-assembly processes that draw inspiration from biology to construct devices in vivo.
