Front Cover: The potential of silks is rapidly becoming a reality with the number of new silk‐based systems growing at a fast pace. Early applications of Bombyx mori silk fibroin in the field of biomaterials have now been extended to other exciting areas, such as optics, photonics or electronics. Clearly, the future of silk is only dictated by researchers' creativity and imagination. Further details can be found in the article by R. F. P. Pereira, M. M. Silva, and V. de Zea Bermudez on page 1171 .
