Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomimetic drug delivery systems are a new type of drug delivery system that has emerged rapidly in recent years. Extracts, isolates, and various natural particles such as mammalian cells, endogenous proteins, and pathogens from humans, animals, and microorganisms simulate their basic structural functions in the form of in vitro recombination. Biomimetic drug delivery systems have drawn extensive attention because of their excellent biocompatibility, lower immunogenicity, and ease of mimicking the biostructure and function of biological systems, making them promising drug delivery systems.
This Special Issue on bionic drug delivery systems calls for contributions from scientists and researchers working in all areas of biomimetic drug delivery systems and welcomes original research, theoretical, experimental, and review papers about biomimetic hydrogels, biomimetic micelles, biomimetic liposomes, biomimetic dendrimers, biomimetic polymeric carriers, biomimetic nanostructures, exosome drug delivery systems, and membrane-functional drug delivery systems, among others.

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. Biomimetics 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 2200 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.
