Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Although a broad number of medical devices for soft and hard tissue regeneration are already on the market, fundamental biological and medical aspects are still unclear. Moreover, most of these materials still do not possess regenerative capacities comparable to autologous transplants. Thus, it is of great importance to obtain deeper insights in the material-associated biological responses for the understanding of the clinical relevance of a specific biomaterial. Moreover, this knowledge, in concert with new results regarding new biomaterials or biomaterial classes, will lead to improved material development and clinical translation. Nowadays, a large number of preclinical in vitro and in vivo studies, as well as clinical studies, are being conducted to develop new biomaterials, with a focus on new material classes such as biodegradable metals or 3D-printed materials for different clinical applications. Furthermore, it is understood that the interaction of materials with the immune system is of high importance for the biofunctionality of biomaterials.
However, we still require deeper insights into different material-related processes. In this Special Issue, we aim to present new insights into the underlying cellular and molecular interactions of biomaterials for hard and soft tissue regeneration. We invite you to submit studies describing new biological aspects of both new and already available biomaterials, and innovative material-processing techniques related to the healing processes of soft and hard tissues. Contributions in the form of reviews and/or original papers are both welcome.

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. Biomedicines 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 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
