Flexible electronics have gained considerable research concern due to their wide prospect for health monitoring, soft robotics, and artificial intelligence, wherein flexible pressure sensors are necessary components of wearable devices. It is well known that the synergistic functions multiscale structures hybrid materials exert tremendous effects on performance Herein, inspired by unique structure faceplate sunflowers, we construct a hierarchical in situ grown vertically aligned molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets carbonized silk fabric (MoS2/CSilk), which applied as sensing material sensors. The MoS2/CSilk sensor displayed high sensitivity good stability. We demonstrated its applications monitoring subtle physiology signals, such pulse wave voice vibrations. In addition, it served electrodes lithium-ion batteries. electrode delivered ultrahigh first-cycle discharge charge capacities 2895 1594 mA h g-1, respectively. exhibited capacity 810 g-1 with CE close 100% even after 300 cycles, suggesting excellent overall performances ascribed effect CSilk MoS2. concept strategy this work can be extended design fabrication other multifunctional
