B. A. Grzybowski and co‐workers develop a novel approach to magnetofluidic tweezing, described on page 3453. This approach overcomes several limitations of other tweezing modalities and allows the controlled assembly of small particles into various static and dynamic structures: the image depicts the generation of colloidal crystals.
