Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Microfluidic technology has revolutionized biological research by enabling the precise control and manipulation of small volumes of fluids. This technology has facilitated advancements in areas such as cell biology, diagnostics, and drug development. Microfluidic devices allow for high-throughput screening, single-cell analysis, and the creation of complex tissue models, offering unparalleled accuracy and efficiency. The integration of microfluidics in biological applications promises to enhance our understanding of cellular processes and accelerate the development of personalized medicine. This Special Issue aims to explore the latest innovations and applications of microfluidics in biological sciences, highlighting its transformative impact on research and clinical practice.
We look forward to receiving your submissions.

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. Micromachines 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 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.
