Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the pursuit of innovative medical solutions continues, this Special Issue aims to showcase the latest breakthroughs, research findings, and technological developments in the synthesis and application of magnesium-based implants through additive manufacturing techniques.
Magnesium, with its remarkable biodegradable properties and compatibility with the human body, has emerged as a promising material for next-generation implants. The integration of additive manufacturing further enhances precision, customization, and scalability in the fabrication process. This Special Issue invites researchers, scientists, and experts from around the globe to contribute their original research articles, reviews, and case studies, fostering a collaborative platform for sharing knowledge and driving advancements in this dynamic field.
Submissions are encouraged to cover a broad spectrum of topics, including novel additive manufacturing methods, material innovations, biocompatibility assessments, and clinical applications of magnesium biodegradable implants. Join us in shaping the future of medical implants through this Special Issue, as we strive to push the boundaries of scientific knowledge and contribute to the evolution of healthcare technologies. Together, let us explore the transformative potential of additive manufacturing in the realm of magnesium biodegradable implants.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
