Cyclodextrin‐driven host–guest chemistry is a powerful approach for designing dynamic and adaptive materials with finely tunable properties. B. V. K. J. Schmidt and C. Barner‐Kowollik describe in their Review on page 8350 ff. how complex supramolecular structures can be formed for applications ranging from biomedicine to self‐healing materials. Akin to host–guest interactions that fuse different molecular strands, this Special Issue dedicated to 150 years of the GDCh and 100 years of the RACI fuses examples of German and Australian chemistry from a range of disciplines.
