In article number 1701510 , Liping Liu, Han Zhang, and co‐workers demonstrate that green and injectable composite hydrogels based on cellulose and Black Phosphorus (BP) nanosheets (BPNSs) are of great efficiency for photothermal therapy (PTT) against cancer. The cellulose/BPNS‐based hydrogel possesses 3D networks with irregular micrometer‐sized pores and thin, strong cellulose‐formed walls and exhibits an excellent photothermal response, enhanced stability, and good flexibility.
