In article number 1900245 by Milica Radisic and co‐workers, poly(itaconate‐ co ‐citrate‐ co ‐octanediol) (PICO) polyester bioelastomers are developed with tunable elasticity and rapid photocrosslinking for soft biomaterial applications. Leveraging a two‐step curing process, PICO materials are moldable into intricate scaffold designs capable of supporting the organization of contractile cardiac tissues.
