Cover: The cover image presents graphene oxide (GO) functionalized with chitosan (FGOC). The chemical functionalization of GO can impart solubility and, in case of FGOC, biocompatibility in a biological environment. FGOC is a promising material for biological and medical applications: model studies have shown controlled‐release behavior of the two model drugs ibuprofen and 5‐fluorouracil.
