Biomacromolecular Applications in Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery

Dear Colleagues,

The aim of this Special Issue of Biomedicine is to publish studies that focus on biomimetic compounds created through biomaterials tailoring to improve drug delivery systems and promote the treatment of damaged tissue. Biomacromolecules are promising candidates for this aim due to their unique features. Accordingly, this Special Issue will highlight biomacromolecules-based innovative structures for biomedical applications, mainly tissue engineering and drug delivery systems. As such, we encourage submissions addressing, but not limited to, the following: development of implantable and personalized scaffolds using biomacromolecules for tissue repair; development of biomacromolecules-based innovative structures for drug delivery; development of biomacromolecules-based innovative structures for theranostics applications.

We look forward to receiving your work.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Polymers 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 2700 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.
