Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cancer remains a severe and frightening disease throughout the world, as evidenced by relentless statistics from WHO: in 2020, there were 19.3 million new cases of cancer and almost 10 million deaths. To defeat this scourge, science uses all possible approaches and methods, among which the arsenal of nanomaterials occupies an increasingly significant place. Gold and silver nanoparticles occupy not the last place in this arsenal; numerous articles have been published concerning their use for the treatment and diagnosis of cancer. The special issue "Gold and Silver nanoparticles in the treatment and diagnosis of cancer" can serve as a good platform for collecting and analyzing new data on the use of these nanoparticles for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
All types of submission are invited to be presented in a Special Issue of "Advances in Nanoscale Materials in Biomedicine" to show new achievements and experts' views on the state of affairs and prospects for the development of this branch of nanotechnology.
We hope that this Special Issue can serve as a kind of interdisciplinary get-together, allowing to discuss both current news in the field of gold and silver nanoparticles use in the treatment and diagnosis of cancer, and experimental developments aimed at creating new tools and methods for the treatment and diagnosis of cancer using these nanoparticles.
We welcome original research articles and reviews, communications and short letters devoted to medical and experimental research on gold and silver nanoparticles application in cancer treatment and diagnosis.
Prof. Dr. Elena I. Ryabchikova

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
