Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Innovative multifunctional hybrid materials, merging organic and inorganic components, have proven their high potential in the biomedical field, although the realization of applicable materials and devices still represents a significant technological challenge. This Special Issue aims at highlighting the main progresses in the design, fabrication, and advanced characterizations of such hybrid materials, sheding light on their extraordinary properties and reviewing various proofs of concept and application achievements in the fields of therapy, diagnosis, and regenerative medicine. Special consideration will be given to multifunctional hybrid materials, including those with a stimuli-responsive tailoring, to fight cancer, neurodegeneration, osteoarticular diseases, and bacterial and viral infections. Likewise, significant attention will be paid to assessing accomplishments in the area of bioelectronic and wearable devices, with a special focus on diagnostic and theranostic applications.

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. Materials 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 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.
