Front Cover: The cover picture shows the preparation of hydrogels from carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) with phenolic hydroxy groups (CMC‐Ph) via peroxidase‐catalyzed reactions, and the fibroblast behavior on the hydrogel. Cellular adhesion and proliferation on the CMC‐Ph gels are tunable, by changing the phenolic‐hydroxyl‐group content in CMC‐Ph. Further details can be found in the article by Y. Ogushi, * S. Sakai, K. Kawakami on page 262.
