Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Microfluidics is increasingly becoming an essential tool in biology, biochemistry, biophysics, medicine, and biotechnology. The advantages of microfluidics include novel methods of manipulation, higher speed, automation, high-throughput assays, reagent reduction, compatibility with microscopy, and cost savings. Developments in microfluidics often facilitate research, from single-molecule studies to those on the systems biology of model organisms.
This Special Issue of Micromachines will provide an academic forum and platform for researchers to share some of their insights into the engineering complexities that arise when developing microfluidics for these applications. We look forward to your contributions.
Dr. Jack Merrin
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. Micromachines 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.
