An octopus-inspired cup, also known as OctoPatch, was developed by our group, and now is part of external page Transirebiostartup. It has demonstrated promising results in delivering peptides such as desmopressin and semaglutide. Explore the details of this technology in the free-access manuscript at external page Science Translational Medicine, DOI: 10.1126/scitranslmed.abq1887.
We are also thrilled to share that this publication has gained attention in prominent outlets including external page Nature news, ETH Zurich, and external page Swissinfo news.
