Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Graphene and graphene-oxide-based nanomaterials have attracted broad research interest because of their unique physiochemical properties. Both experiments and computational modeling has engaged in exploring the use of these 2D allotropic structures in various medicinal and biological fields. The biomedical applications of graphene and its composites, including in small molecular drug delivery, biosensors, bioimaging, etc., have been extensively studied in the last ten years. Moreover, the nanotoxicology of graphene and its derivatives is also of interest due to its promising applications for the biofunctionalization of protein, in anticancer therapy, and as an antimicrobial agent for bone and teeth implantation. The biocompatibility of newly synthesized nanomaterials allows their substantial use in medicine and biology. Therefore, we invite you to submit manuscripts to this Special Issue on the aforementioned topics. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all 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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
