Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The use of tissue engineering techniques to augment and improve the healing of multiple-organ systems continues to have a tremendous positive impact on patient health. Improved clinical outcomes are often the direct result of advances in tissue engineering, which are made possible by the dedicated efforts of scientists and the creativity and skill of surgeons. Indeed, the limitations of these amazing biomaterial substates are most often conceived and evaluated by benchtop scientists, but their applications are often limited by the creativity and skill of clinicians. In this Special Issue of Bioengineering, titled Biomaterials for the Repair and Regeneration of Musculoskeletal Tissue, we will highlight impactful tissue-healing products and surgical techniques from both science/industry and clinical viewpoints. Readers will come away with new knowledge of immediate clinical applications or techniques to improve clinical outcomes, especially in difficult cases.
Dr. Christopher Bibbo
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. 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.
