We publish many papers but this is the one we can be proud of – Aftab – a very big thanks to you to raise the flag for the group both in Falling Walls and in Advanced Healthcare Devices!
 
Ultra-Stretchable and Flexible Copper Interconnect Based Smart Patch for Adaptive Thermotherapy
 
Unprecedented 800% stretchable, non-polymeric, widely used, low-cost, naturally rigid metallic thin film copper (Cu) based flexible and non-invasively skin contour integrated spatially tunable mobile thermal patch with wireless controllability, adaptability (tunes the amount of heat based on the temperature of the swollen portion), reusability, and affordability due to low-cost complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) compatible integration.  
 
Advanced Healthcare Materials is an international, interdisciplinary forum for peer-reviewed papers on materials science aimed at promoting human health. Advanced Healthcare Materials was first published as a special focus section Advanced Materials in 2011 and launched as a journal at the start of 2012. In 2014 Advanced Healthcare Materials received a one-year impact factor of 4.88 and an Immediacy Index of 1.285, second highest in the category Materials Science, Biomaterials.
 
A classic paper whose impact is immediate and honestly if there is an investor come forward we are ready to roll … academic seal team strike more – huah!
