Special Issue Information
Driven by innovations in engineering, biology, and biomaterials, as well as by its own potential, the field of biofabrication has evolved rapidly in the last two decades, creating marvelous opportunities and enabling new research directions within personalized biomedicine and regenerative therapies. Because the impact of this research field has been and continues to be enormous, this Special Issue invites scientists working at universities, research institutes, laboratories, and in different industries to discuss state-of-the-art research and the latest developments in the biofabrication technologies used to define novel approaches in regenerative and/or personalized medicine, which will enable us to overcome the limitations of animal model validation and to speed up their clinical application, while taking into account their quality and regulation.
In this Special Issue, we welcome full articles, short communications, and reviews that highlight the recent findings that have broadened the horizons of biofabrication, including, but not limited to, new bioinks, new biofabrication approaches and technological advancements, progress in the translation of biofabrication technologies from bench to bedside, novel 3D models in regenerative and personalized medicine, non-destructive methods used for characterization, and achievements in the regulatory field.
It is our pleasure to invite submissions to this Special Issue of Bioengineering.

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. Bioengineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
