Cover: The cover picture shows a uniform growth of cells with spread out cytoskeleton and clear nuclei on the high strength non‐bioengineered silk fibroin protein 3D scaffolds along with different life stages of the silkworm. Being cytocompatible and biodegradable the natural non‐mulberry matrices has potential for biotechnological and tissue engineering applications. Further details can be found in the article by B. B. Mandal and S. C. Kundu on page 807.
