Cover: The picture on the cover shows morphological comparisons of the gellan chitosan hybrid fiber (left( and the novel human hair protein‐gellan‐chitosan hybrid fiber (right(, which were prepared by new combined technologies of (i( “Shindai method” for high‐efficiency extraction of human hair protein and (ii( “Watery hybridization spinning” that allows to produce the water‐insoluble hybrid fibers from two aqueous solutions of counter‐charged polymers.
