Sumario:Villi Inspired Mechanical Interlocking Balancing effective medical device retention in the small intestine with minimal tissue trauma is a vital clinical pursuit. Inspiration is drawn from intestinal villi, leading to a strategy of utilizing high‐aspect‐ratio elastomeric microposts for mechanical interlocking with villi to create non‐penetrative intestinal retentive platforms.
