Abstract

Abstract : The self‐assembly of β‐amyloid peptides into aggregates is a major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease that affects more than 11% of the population aged over 65. In article number1601133, Chan Beum Park and co‐workers show that β‐amyloid self‐assembly can be suppressed effectively via photoelectrocatalytic mechanism using a hematite‐based photoelectrode platform.
