Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanotechnology is considered as the forefront in the era of technological advancement in biomedical sciences. The proficiency of nanotechnology is realized in almost every domain, but their utility in biomedical applications has substantially increased. The market for nanomaterials' commercialization is set to escalate over the next decade, with more clinical translations of these nanoparticles expected. The efficacy of nanotechnology in biomedical sciences depends on the selection of the targeted application, curtailing production costs, and minimizing long-term health issues. Recently, the field of biomedical sciences started to explore the intrinsic chemical/physical properties and responses of nanoparticles rather than just using them as carrier vehicles for delivering therapeutic molecules. There has been significant progress in the use of nanomaterials in the field of tissue engineering, drug delivery imaging, wearable electronics, and biosensing. Therefore, the proposed Special Issue will focus on the innovative fabrication techniques for synthesizing nanomaterials, the efficacy of nanomaterials in terms of biological response, and toxicity assessment and subsequently its usage in the biomedical sciences.

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. Molecules 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 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.
