Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Molecular advances in orthopedic trauma and therapy are driving transformative improvements in patient outcomes. Novel biomaterials and technologies are revolutionizing orthopedic treatments, enhancing durability, and improving patient compatibility.
In the realm of diagnostics, molecular and genetic tools are allowing for more accurate, early stage diagnosis of orthopedic conditions. The integration of AI and machine learning algorithms also contributes to the sophistication of these diagnostic tools.
Finally, the regenerative orthopedics, underpinned by advances in stem cell research and tissue engineering, is gaining momentum. The potential to regrow or repair damaged bone or cartilage is no longer science fiction.
Embracing the molecular, biological, cellular, and material research in orthopedics is vital. This multidisciplinary approach promotes innovative solutions that improve patient outcomes and reduce recovery time. Hence, it is important to explore these fields for the betterment of orthopedics.
Works regarding molecular, biological, cellular, and material research are encouraged.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
