Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Biomimetic hydrogels are engineered to mimic extracellular microenvironments, as reported by Martin Ehrbar and co‐workers <ext-link ext-link-type="doi" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">on page 292</ext-link>. The cover image shows schematically how these matrices can selectively capture proteins from solution and present them to target cells in close proximity, triggering a desired cellular response. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1ts4rwpv" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
