Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances have led to exciting developments in bone tissue engineering. The aim of this Special Issue is to present the state-of-the-art progress in such advances in bone tissue engineering and their scientific and clinical applications. We welcome original research articles, comprehensive reviews, methods, mini-reviews, and perspectives including (but not limited to) the following topics:
- Biomaterials for bone tissue engineering;
- Gene therapy strategies in bone tissue engineering;
- The potential impact of bone tissue engineering in surgery;
- Stem cells in bone tissue engineering;
- 3D printing for bone tissue engineering;
- Drug/gene delivery strategies in bone tissue engineering;
- Animal models for bone tissue engineering and modelling disease.

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. Bioengineering 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 2700 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.
