Abstract: The joint special issue "Women in Emerging Organic and Hybrid Electronic Materials and Interfaces" celebrates the scientific excellence, creativity, and leadership of women researchers advancing the frontiers of organic and hybrid electronics.Launched in honor of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, this issue brings together original research and perspectives that exemplify the interdisciplinary rigor and innovation across materials science, physics, chemistry, and biology.A prominent theme throughout this issue is the interface between organic electronics and biological systems.Gentile et al. (202500181) provide a perspective on multimodal, light-mediated organic bioelectronics.Campione et al. (202400776) investigate P3HT and P3HT-MWCNT composite films for neuronal interfacing, while Shakibania et al. (202400774) review strategies for covalent immobilization of biomolecules on electronic interfaces.Additionally, Boufidis et al. (202500261) demonstrate that electrochemically active Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets are cytocompatible with cortical astrocytes, supporting their potential use in glial-targeted neural interfaces and bioelectronic applications.Extending this theme, Tommasini et al. (202400962) explore the dual functionality of thiophene-based semiconductors in Hydra vulgaris, where polymerization in soft tissues coincides with unexpected neuromodulatory behavior.Diagnostics and environmental sensing are also strongly represented.Wheeler et al. (202400996) validate a supported lipid bilayer platform integrated with multielectrode arrays for detecting live bacteria.Miao et al. (202500033) demonstrate how membrane curvature influences the intercalation and remodeling behavior of conjugated oligoelectrolytes.Elli et al. (202400886) present an electrolyte-gated field-effect transistor sensor capable of detecting nanoplastics complexed with mercury ions, empha-
