The Front Cover shows the protagonist of our recent work, platinum. Although well‐known for its immense contribution to chemotherapy in the form of cisplatin, this transition metal has only sparingly been explored for antimicrobial applications so far. In our work we describe its excellent in vitro antibacterial activity against Gram‐positive strains, including drug resistant ones. Cover design by Dr. Angelo Frei.
