Alginate hydrogels are widely researched in phar-maceutical applications for their abilities to encapsulate and dis-perse therapeutics in response to stimuli. While effective, their utility can be greatly improved once converted into artificial cell soft-microrobots, allowing them to actively navigate through complex in vivo environments and facilitate targeted drug deliv-ery. In this study, artif...
