Abstract

Bioinspired silica nanocapsules displaying two different contrasting agents are described by R. Vecchione and co‐workers on page 2688. The nanocapsules have drug molecules loaded into different regions. The image illustrates how these nanocapsules can release the drug (red dots) to a magnified cancerous region, tumor detection (represented by yellow fluorescence) and MRI activity (waves).
