The cover feature picture shows the supramolecular copolymerisation of a dendritic peptide amphiphile monomer bearing mannosides and a second monomer carrying tetra(ethylene glycol)s and labelled with a Cy3 fluorescent probe. The multicomponent mannose‐decorated copolymers trigger the uptake into macrophages as antigen‐presenting cells that play a key role in the innate immune response.
