Parallel, fast, and effortless self‐assembly of nanosized components results in their organization of into functional objects. In their Communication on page 5580 ff., Stamou, Vogel, et al. describe how receptor–ligand recognition allows the assembly of single attoliter molecular vessels in a two‐dimensional array format, thus allowing the rapid detection, identification, and manipulation of biologically active compounds in a parallel manner.
