Triggered release systems based on physiological stimuli have emerged for advanced therapeutic delivery applications. On page H273 , Frank Caruso and co‐workers combine several independent release mechanisms that synergistically function to tune cargo release profi les. The simple and efficient synthesis allows the design of “smart” capsules with dual stimuliresponsive cargo release mechanisms for therapeutic applications.
