Can we agree on what sustainability means in bioelectronics?
The authors stress the need to report sustainability metrics alongside performance, assess whole devices rather than just the active layer, and look at the full life cycle, from sourcing to disposal. The final goal is a field in which "sustainable" means something measurable that other labs can test and build on.
