In article number 2100056 by Yongan Wang, Yuan Luo, Yuanjin Zhao, and co‐workers, a ZIF‐8@MeHA microneedle (MN) array is fabricated by template molding method for wound healing. Such an MN patch has a good antibacterial effect by releasing Zn 2+ to kill microbes. Meanwhile, the MeHA hydrogel is capable of promoting the regeneration of neonatal epithelial tissues through gradual degradation.
