Abstract Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Wolfgang Tremel from Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz, Germany. The cover image shows inorganic nanoparticles that mimic the catalytic activity of naturally occurring enzymes. The nanoparticles are more stable and cost‐efficient, and their high surface area endows them with a large number of active sites.
