Front Cover: The development of synthetic molecular machines—entities designed to perform desired tasks in the presence of an energy source—requires integrating switchable elements within larger objects. In that respect, polymers have a key role to play. This Special Issue compiles diverse strategies for the successful incorporation of molecular switches into macromolecular architectures and the emerging properties. Representative works of stimuli‐responsive structures, from self‐assemblies to three‐dimensional polymer networks, are highlighted on the front cover. Further details can be found in the editorial by David Bléger and Rafal Klajn (article number 1700827).
