A new design concept is developed on page 6762 by A. Böker and co‐workers for preparing ultra‐thin membranes based on the self‐assembly of polymer‐decorated protein nanoparticles which is highly flexible and robust for testing in a macroscopic membrane setup. This approach opens the gate for the development of sophisticated membranes in which protein are used as selective and “smart” pores.
