Front Cover : Smart drug delivery based on cationic polymer microparticles is developed via free‐radical suspension polymerizations of MMA, DMAEMA and DEAEMA. The microparticles show high incorporation of the drug praziquantel (mainly used in schistosomiasis treatment) and efficient releases in acidic pHs, showing great potential as a new oral formulation. This is reported by Thamiris Franckini Paiva, Jéssica Bentes Alves, Príamo Albuquerque Melo, and José Carlos Pinto in article 1900028.
