The “Nanomedicine and Nanobiology” Section publishes reviews and original peer-reviewed papers of a high scientific level covering all aspects of nanomedicine. Papers aim to uncover the synthesis, bioavailability, and biodistribution of nanomedicines; the delivery, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics of nanomedicines; imaging; diagnostics; improved therapeutics; innovative biomaterials; and interactions of nanomaterials with cells, tissues, and living organisms. In this context, we are pleased to feature some recently published papers from the “Nanomedicine and Nanobiology” Section in Biomedicines (ISSN: 2227-9059), which provide valuable insights into this exciting field.
