Stretchable bioelectronics integrates mechanically compliant electronic materials and devices with soft, dynamic environments such as the human body and soft robots. The field develops flexible and stretchable conductors, transistors, sensors, displays, and circuit boards using liquid metal composites, conductive polymers, elastomers, hydrogels, and biodegradable substrates. Emphasis is placed on skin-like form factors, self-healing and shape-memory behavior, conformal 3D integration, and transient or recyclable systems, enabling wearable, implantable, and environmentally sustainable electronic and bioelectronic technologies.
