Self‐healing electronic materials can repair damage caused by external agents. Therefore, they are highly desirable for electronic devices. Fabio Cicoira and Shiming Zhang, in article number 1703098 , find that films of the conducting polymer poly(3,4)ethylenedioxythiophene doped with polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) show instantaneous electronic healing after wetting the damaged area with water.
