Front Cover: The combination of layer‐by‐layer assembly and covalent chemistry is used for the stepwise surface engineering of poly(lactide‐ co ‐glycolide) nanoparticles. By these means, it is possible to reduce unspecific cell uptake of nanoparticles and then to increase it specifically for selected cancer cell lines. Further details can be found in the article by J. Zhou, G. Romero, E. Rojas, S. Moya, * L. Ma, and C. Gao * on page 404 .
