Cover: In the cover picture, the study of the PNIPAAM functionalization by ATRP polymerization of emulsion particles and monoliths is summarized. At the top, the functionalization of single particles is depicted: on the left, a TEM picture of the PNIPAAM brushes; on the right, their swelling behavior as a function of the temperature. At the bottom, the same characterization is shown for monolithic structures. Further details can be found in the article by V. Mittal, N. B. Matsko, A. Butte ´, and M. Morbidelli* on page 491.
