Modulus‐tunable composite micropillars are developed by combining replica molding and selective inking for medical skin adhesives in U‐health diagnostic devices. Inspired from hierarchically organized gecko foot hair, Kahp Y. Suh and co‐wokers present on page 109 composite PDMS micropillars to enhance adhesion strength and durability of dry adhesive skin patches.
