Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, “Biomolecular Engineering and Bioelectronics”, will cover advanced research topics relating to biomolecular engineering, focusing their application to bioelectronics, such as biosensing technologies and bio-fuel cell development. The research topics cover bioelectronics-based molecular studies, and basic studies on biomolecules, based on novel electrochemical approaches are also welcome. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, research and development of novel biomolecules for future biosensing applications, advanced materials to be utilized as the interface between biological materials and electronic devices, novel electron acceptors to be utilized for electrochemical investigation of redox biochemistries, novel platform technologies for bioelectronics, such as novel electrode configuration and/or materials, novel principles for electrochemical based biosensing, such as advanced electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, novel concepts and technologies for bioelectronics based bioenergy generation, and so on. Research from both academic and industrial aspects is 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. 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.
