Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce this call for papers for the upcoming Special Issue in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS) on “Molecular Research in Retinal Degeneration”. I have been appointed as the editor of this Special Issue, and I am excited to gather outstanding contributions in this important field.
Retinal degeneration is a vital research area that encompasses a variety of approaches, from clinical studies to basic and applied research. This Special Issue aims to bring together innovative and cutting-edge research that advances our understanding of the causes, mechanisms, and treatments of diseases affecting the retina.
I cordially invite all interested researchers to submit their contributions for consideration in this Special Issue. We welcome original articles, reviews, and brief communications addressing any aspect related to retinal degeneration, including but not limited to the following:
- Molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in retinal degeneration.
- Novel therapeutic strategies to prevent or treat retinal diseases.
- Advances in diagnostic techniques and monitoring retinal degeneration.
- Clinical studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of therapeutic interventions.
- Future perspectives and challenges in retinal degeneration research.
Dr. Francisco J. Diaz Corrales
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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
