Front Cover: To address the effect of chitosan micropatterning on nerve regeneration, two sizes of parallel microstripes of chitosan are fabricated by Y. Yang and co‐workers on the surface of coverslips using a micromodeling method. The study presented on page 1067 suggests that chitosan micropatterning can induce and regulate the growth of SCs well, which may have potential application in peripheral nerve regeneration.
