Abstract

Abstract: Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Angela Casini at the Department of Pharmacokinetics, Toxicology and Targeting, Groningen Research Institute of Pharmacy, The Netherlands. The cover image shows the uptake of gold N‐heterocyclic (NHC) complexes, bearing a fluorescent coumarin moiety, in cancer cells and the resulting anticancer effects. Abstract : One of the most interesting aspects in this project is the highly interdisciplinary approach covering inorganic chemistry, biology, pharmacology, and biophysics...
