A catechol‐based molecular memory film is reported by Xiaowen Shi, Gregory F. Payne, and co‐workers in article number 2000452. It is easy to fabricate, employs a simple 2‐state redox mechanism, and is conveniently read by orthogonal optical and electrical measurements. The redox memory states are stable for hours and can be repeatedly switched electrochemically. Importantly, this memory can be switched through biological mechanisms which extends catechols as molecular circuit elements for redox‐linked bioelectronics.
