The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Mineralized structures in nature: Examples and inspirations for the design of new composite materials and biomaterials (2010, background): “There is a strong interest in developing “smart” materials for a range of biomedical applications, which are able to respond to the trigger of different external variables, such as temperature, pH or ionic strength [55].”
Memory formation in matter (2018, background): “In addition to medicine (Mano, 2008), shape-memory polymers are starting to be used in textiles (Chan Vili, 2007), structural repairs such as self-peeling adhesives (Xie and Xiao, 2008), and self-deployable structures for space applications (Sokolowski and Tan, 2007).”
Protein Adsorption to Biomaterials (2009, methodology): “When this material surface was exposed to ultraviolet light, the 2-nitrobenzyl groups were cleaved and albumin was released; then increased adsorption of fibronectin and human embryonic kidney cell adhesion was observed [ 34 , 35] .”
A Brief Review of Stimulus-active Polymers Responsive to Thermal, Light, Magnetic, Electric, and Water/Solvent Stimuli (2010, background): “Another strategy of preparing light-active hydrogels is by incorporating spiropyrane or its derivatives into hydrogel networks (Kameda et al., 2004; Sumaru et al., 2004a,b; Edahiro et al., 2006; Mano, 2008).”
