Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Multidisciplinary convergence research between biology, medicine, biochemistry, bioengineering, biomaterials, biofabrication, nanotechnology, and bioelectronics is growing to tackle scientific challenges for improving human healthcare and quality of life. In recent decades, biomaterials have been widely incorporated with various biofabrication approaches to develop advanced biomedical devices, tissue engineering implants, and antibacterial material.
In this Special Issue, ‘Advances in Biomaterials: Synthesis, Characteristics and Applications’, we invite submissions exploring up-to-date findings and research related to biofabrication (e.g., nano- and micro-fabrication and 3D bioprinting), biomaterials (e.g., decellularized extracellular matrix, conductive hydrogels, and graphene), and electronic technologies for bio/healthcare application (e.g., implantable biosensors, drug delivery systems, organoids, organ-on-a-chips, bioelectronics, and wearable electronics). Communications and reviews are also welcomed.
Prof. Dr. Paweł Kowalczyk
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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
