The back cover picture shows the mesocages of the metal–organic framework MIL‐101(Cr) containing the polyoxometalate (POM) PMo 12 O 40 3– , the reduced POM, and the AuCl 4 – precursor with the reduced POM, leading to the formation of Au 0 nanoparticles able to grow inside the MIL‐101(Cr) framework (schematic structures are shown from the bottom right to the top left). The rapid cell internalization of the resulting Au‐POM‐MIL‐101(Cr) composites is easily monitored by confocal fluorescence microscopy (see the cell image in the background with the nucleus stained in blue and the Au reflection signal from the composite in red). Details are discussed in the article by C. Roch‐Marchal, P. Horcajada et al. on p. 4387 ff .
