Abstract

Abstract: Invited for the cover of this issue is Tetsuro Shinada and co‐workers at Osaka City University and Suntory Foundation For Life Science. The image depicts new catalytic asymmetric synthesis (dragon ball), designed molecules (dragon), and the molecular target (xCT) on cancer cells (tiger).
