Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
3D bioprinting is an innovative technology in the field of biomedicine. This technology is believed to enable the fabrication of more-functional tissues compared to those prepared by conventional techniques. The expression of cellular functions, such as proliferation, migration, and differentiation, in the fabricated constructs, are greatly affected by the surrounding environment of the cells.
This Special Issue, 3D Bioprinting for Biomedicine, will be focused on the advances related to biomolecules, e.g., proteins, polysaccharides, and extracellular matrices, in bioinks, for the fabrication of functional tissues. We welcome both research and review articles about bioprinting using bioinks that actively influence cellular functions, the development of novel biomolecules for bioprinting, and the development of novel bioprinting techniques that are suitable for promising biomolecules.
Prof. Dr. Shinji Sakai
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. Biomolecules 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.
