Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The development of materials engineered from biological matters continues to be an extensive area of research in physical, biological, chemical, materials, and biomedical sciences. This Special Issue of Biomolecules will present a collection of papers related to some of the recent advances in the research and development of imaging probes and contrast agents, reporters and sensors, therapeutic and theranostic platforms that are inspired by or engineered from biological materials for biomedical and biological applications. We invite research papers from the broad scientific community to submit papers to this Special Issue. Some of the topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the design, fabrication, and characterization of such materials; modeling and simulation; material properties; biodistribution and biocompatibility; material–tissue interactions; activation mechanisms; and pre-clinical studies.
Dr. Bahman Anvari
Guest Editor
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. Biomolecules 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 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.
