Xi Yao, Mengsu Yang, and co‐workers prepare transparent nanoparticle‐based liquid marbles for culturing tumor spheroids in 3D in article number 1700185 . The formation of spheroids from a population of cancer cells or a single cell in the transparent liquid marbles can be optically recorded continuously. Tumor spheroids cultured in the liquid marbles show enhanced viability under the treatment of chemotherapeutic drugs and small interfering RNA.
