Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Contributions are invited that specifically involve biomaterials and sensors, which are designed and evaluated for applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Of particular interest are research studies or review articles related to the following areas: 1) connections between fundamental understandings of the chemistry, physics, biology or materials science of biomaterials and sensors with their applications, in vitro or in vivo; 2) novel synthesis procedures or device designs; and we particularly encourage 3) novel applications of biomaterials and sensors in tissue engineering, including their integration with bioMEMs devices, nanotechnology, 3D printing, and 3D culture, as well as approaches that operate in a dynamic fashion (e.g., responsive/adaptable biomaterials and sensors for the dynamic spatial mapping of analytes).

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. Sensors 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.
