Cytoskeletal motors drive many essential cellular processes. For example, kinesin-1 transports cargo in a step-wise manner along microtubules. To resolve rotations during stepping, we used optical tweezers combined with an optical microprotractor and torsion balance using highly birefringent microspheres to

Novel hydrogels with tunable mechanical properties similar to human soft tissue have increasing applications in biomedicine, soft robotics, and biocompatible electronics. However, most of these materials require multiple-step fabrication, are not robust, and compromise bioactivity. Thus, aiming to address these
