**Preface to "Nanomaterials for Biomedical and Biotechnological Applications"**

Nanomaterials have long been used in basic research at universities and research centres; therefore, the scientific community is well aware of their potential. What is still not well known is that almost all kinds of nanomaterials, when properly configurated, can also be used in medical applications and in industrial processing—in the last case both for catabolic and anabolic biochemical reactions. The scope of this Special Issue is to collect cutting-edge research works dealing with nanomaterials that have the potential to produce tools suitable for biomedical and biotechnological applications.

The authors of this reprint are specialized scholars from high-profile universities who have contributed with research and review papers. We called on academic, biomedical and industrial stakeholders who wished to be updated on the latest applications of a variety of nanomaterials.
