MycelioTronics: Fungal mycelium skin for sustainable electronics

https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.add7118

"biodegradable... physical vapor deposition and laser patterning for electronic traces with conductivities as high as 9.75 ± 1.44 × 104 S cm−1. The conformal and flexible electronic mycelium skins withstand more than 2000 bending cycles and can be folded several times with only moderate resistance increase. We demonstrate mycelium batteries with capacities as high as ~3.8 mAh cm−2 used to power autonomous sensing devices including a Bluetooth module and humidity and proximity sensor"
