An octopus-inspired cup, also known as OctoPatch, was developed by our group, and now is part of external pageTransirebiostartup. 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 pageScience Translational Medicine, DOI: 10.1126/scitranslmed.abq1887.

We are also thrilled to share that this publication has gained attention in prominent outlets including external pageNature news, ETH Zurich, and external pageSwissinfo news.
