Cover: The cover shows a new electrospun biocomposite with synergistic effects, such as the electrospinnability of polycaprolactone (PCL), improved mechanical and cellular response of silk fibroin (SF), and hydrophilicity and various growth factors of small intestine submucosa (SIS). The hydrophilicity of PCL/SF/SIS composites is incredibly improved compared to that of the pure PCL and PCL/SF composites. Further details can be found in the article by S. Hong and G. H. Kim * on page 529 .
