Abstract

Abstract : The cover illustrates light‐induced dissociation of Alzheimer's beta‐amyloid (Aβ) aggregates by a BiVO4 ‐based photoelectrode. BiVO4 has drawn broad attention for applications in energy conversion and environmental science. In article number1802813, Chan Beum Park and co‐workers expand the conventional scope of BiVO4 studies into the field of photodynamic therapy by demonstrating a visible light‐active, nanoporous BiVO4 platform for dissociating highly stable Aβ assemblies and alleviating Aβ aggregate‐induced toxicity.
