Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The skin is a unique sensory organ that can experience itch, pain, and other tactile nerve signals. Malfunctions or the dysregulation of skin homeostasis can contribute to a variety of skin diseases, such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, melanoma, and autoimmune diseases including vitiligo, alopecia, and scleroderma. Many dermatoses present a long and persistent clinical course and impact patients' quality of life. However, recent advances in pathogenesis analysis have led to new therapeutic approaches, such as specific biologics and other molecularly targeted drugs. Like other areas of medicine, the field of dermatology is now facing a new era of personalized therapies.
This Special Issue aims to explore the latest research advances in the etiology, molecular mechanisms, diagnosis, and personalized treatment of dermatological diseases. Both clinical and basic science research will be considered, and researchers are warmly invited to submit original research manuscripts and comments to give readers a deeper understanding of these complex diseases and a fresher perspective on the field.

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. Journal of Personalized Medicine 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 2600 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.
