In article number 1800289 , an integrated approach combining multiscale biocompatible functional materials and magnetic induction heating technology is proposed by Gang Zhao, Xiaoming He, and co‐workers to enable mass volume vitrification of stem cell‐alginate hydrogel constructs with low‐concentration cryoprotectants. This may greatly facilitate the use of stem cell‐based constructs for tissue regeneration and cell‐based therapies in the clinic.
