State-of-the-Art Biomaterials in Korea

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is designed to publish a comprehensive study of all the latest biomaterials, medical devices, and digital technologies used in healthcare practice in Korea, which are at the forefront of biomaterial development and commercialization. Additionally, the healthcare system that has recently been highlighted following the Korean response to COVID-19 has helped both industries and academic institutes, furthering the research related to biomaterials applied in medicine and dentistry. Based on one of the largest research funds available, biomaterials have been a key topic in Korea for many years.

Hence, the aim of this Special Issue is to consider the recent advancement of state-of-the-Art biomaterials in Korea. All studies in this Special Issue should contribute to the development of innovative and practical biomaterials through efforts to overcome the mechanical, chemical, and biological limitations of the past. The topic would include but not be limited to the following themes:

• Current trend of biomaterials research in Korea;
• Biomaterials developed in Korea;
• Test method of biomaterials developed in Korea;
• Clinical studies related to biomaterials in Korean populations.
