Cover: Two steps towards improved biointerfaces are demonstrated. Firstly, the density of primary amines (NH 2 ) can be controlled by selection of pulsed plasma conditions in the plasma polymerization of heptylamine. Secondly, continuous wave and pulsed plasma modes can be combined for higher stability and a higher density of NH 2 . Further details can be found in the articles by X. J. Dai, * J. du Plessis, I. L. Kyratzis, G. Maurdev, M. G. Huson, and C. Coombs on page 490 and L. Li, X. J. Dai, * H. S. Xu, J. H. Zhao, P. Yang, G. Maurdev, J. du Plessis, P. R. Lamb, B. L. Fox, and W. P.
