Prospectives in Regenerative Medicine and Surgery: Stem Cells and Beyond

Dear Colleagues,

This comprehensive Special Issue will delve into the diverse facets of regenerative medicine, focusing on advancements in stem cell research and related technologies. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but not limited to) the following:

1. Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ASCs) and Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs): Novel applications, therapeutic potentials and challenges in utilizing ASCs and MSCs in regenerative medicine.
2. Tissue Engineering and Scaffolds: Cutting-edge developments in tissue engineering, including the design and application of biomimetic scaffolds for regenerative purposes.
3. Biomaterials: Advancements in biomaterials and their role in facilitating tissue regeneration and repair.
4. Organs on a Chip: Progress in the development and utilization of microphysiological systems for studying organ-level responses and interactions.
5. Three-Dimensional Organoids: Applications, challenges and future directions in the development and use of 3D organoids for regenerative medicine.
6. Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) and Microvesicles (MVs): Emerging insights into the therapeutic potential and mechanisms of action of EVs and MVs in regenerative medicine.
7. Clinical Trials and Translational Research: Insights from ongoing clinical trials and translational research in regenerative medicine.
8. Ethical and Regulatory Considerations: Discussions on ethical dilemmas and regulatory frameworks associated with regenerative medicine.
9. Emerging Technologies: Exploration of cutting-edge technologies influencing the future of regenerative medicine.
10. Precision Medicine Approaches in Regenerative Medicine and Surgery: Tailoring regenerative therapies based on individual patient characteristics.

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. Journal of Personalized Medicine 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.
