The combination of metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and flexible electronics to yield a distributed biosensor is demonstrated by Hang Xu, and Xian Huang, and co‐workers in article number 1800917 . A multichannel flexible device is integrated with nanosized MOFs to conduct highly specific electrochemical sensing of nutrients. Techniques and materials are revealed to monitor the distribution and transportation of nutrients and other biomolecules in multiple organ locations with high throughput, offering promising tools for understanding the mechanisms of symptoms related to nutrient deficiency, metabolism disorder, and neurological disease.
