DOI: 10.1002/pmic.201700462 The combination of 3D tissue models with mass spectrometry imaging provides a label‐free methodology for the study of drug absorption/penetration, drug efficacy/toxicity, and drug biotransformation. In article number 1700462 , Russo et al. discuss the successes achieved to date and challenges to be overcome before this methodology is more widely adopted. The cover illustrates mass spectrometry imaging of a living skin equivalent model showing marker ions of the stratum corneum and epidermis.
