Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The current understanding of nanoneurobiophysics points towards the idea of merging this branch that brings together nano and medical sciences, as well as new perspectives which use nanotechnology to investigate neurodegenerative diseases in the brain. Outstanding new nanotechnologies have been developed and used in a diverse way, gaining new insights into the bimolecular cause of diseases and driving new therapies for the treatment and improvement of the morbid condition. Nanoneuroscience incorporates the study of neurodegenerative disorders using nanodevices, whereby a substantial knowledge gap needs to be filled in order to understand their mechanisms, together with nanoneurobiophysics, by bringing together nanobiomolecule research using nanostructured devices and highly sensitive approaches to conduct an in-depth investigation of the neurodegenerative disorders. Therefore, current studies in nanotechnology have consolidated its advances in biology, physics, mathematics, and chemistry. We invite applications from all sciences that incorporate nanotechnologies to search for diagnostic methods, identify neurodegenerative disease, improve treatment, and contribute to the understanding of its biological implications.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
