Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Tissue engineering has witnessed significant advancements in recent years, driven by innovative developments and interdisciplinary research. Novel techniques such as 3D bioprinting, organ-on-chip models, and the use of stem cells have revolutionized the ability to fabricate complex tissue structures with enhanced functionality. These developments promise to improve regenerative medicine, offering new hope for the treatment of damaged or diseased tissues. However, the field faces several challenges, including the need for scalable manufacturing processes, ensuring the biocompatibility and long-term viability of engineered tissues, and navigating regulatory pathways for clinical applications. Moreover, integrating vascularization and innervation in large tissue constructs remains a critical hurdle. Despite these challenges, the future of tissue engineering is promising, with ongoing research focusing on personalized medicine, the development of hybrid materials, and the integration of artificial intelligence to optimize design and production processes. This Special Issue of Bioengineering on Insights in Tissue Engineering: Novel Developments, Current Challenges, and Future Perspectives addresses the evolution of these tissue engineering technologies, as they hold the potential to transform healthcare by providing innovative solutions for tissue repair and replacement, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

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.
