Theories suggest that ancient Egyptians believed that the bones of gods were made of iron. Indeed, iron has been suggested as a key material in implantable biodegradable medical devices. In article number 1805006 , Sangwon Kim, Bradley J. Nelson, Salvador Pané, and co‐workers describe how to manufacture three‐dimensional fully iron magnetic microrobots for biomedical applications using two‐photon polymerization and electrodeposition.
