Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Emerging soft electronics are paving the way for advancements in tissue engineering and characterization. Their tissue-mimicking properties present unparalleled opportunities for forming flexible tissue interfaces, which is crucial for various medical applications. However, transitioning these innovations into clinical settings—where high tissue penetration, efficacy, and accuracy are paramount—poses significant challenges. Thus, there is an urgent need for advanced technologies to effectively engineer and characterize tissues.

This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest research in tissue engineering and characterization, with a particular focus on soft electronics. We are seeking studies that not only push the boundaries of what is currently possible but also address, among others, the following challenges: the regulation of biomaterials in tissue repair, drug delivery, wearable sensors for deep tissue sensing, and tissue characterization techniques to facilitate clinical diagnostics.

We kindly invite you to submit a manuscript to this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews that expand the frontiers of using soft electronics in healthcare are all welcome.

Dr. Muyang Lin
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
