Front Cover: Nitroxide-mediated polymerization (NMP) of methacrylic esters is still a great challenge in the field of polymer science. This Feature Article will first discuss the reasons why this class of monomers-the most representative one being methyl methacrylate-is usually poorly controlled by NMP, and will then present the most successful strategies to control their polymerization. NMP-derived materials comprising uncontrolled methacrylate segments will also be covered. Further details can be found in the article by E. Guegain, Y. Guillaneuf, and J. Nicolas* on page 1227.
