Advances in Biomedical Applications: Biomaterials, Medical Devices and Regenerative Medicine

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue invites papers that cover original research on advances in applied biomaterials and regenerative medicine for innovative biomedical applications as well as for improving the state of knowledge related to evidence that can be applied in the design, characterization, and evaluation of critical aspects.

Potential topics include but are not limited to applications in dentistry, odontostomatology, orthopedics, and maxillofacial surgery. Both in vitro and in/ex vivo studies involving clinical research, new methodologies and technologies for the experimental investigation and evaluation of advanced manufacturing processes (i.e., digital manufacturing, additive manufacturing, 3D printing, bioprinting, etc.) and prototypes, and the optimization of clinical and technical procedures, including based on computational and numerical models, will be considered. Furthermore, this issue will take into consideration research studies assessing quality, critical regulatory, ethical, and forensic medicine issues related to biomaterials, regenerative medicine, and the final applications of medical devices. Specific innovative methodologies for the manufacturing and assessment of personalized medical applications as well as the elaboration of data and images based on advanced analyses and approaches will also be included.

This Special Issue will comprise articles and review studies on relevant trends related to the main topics.
