Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to serve as Guest Editors for this upcoming Special Issue, "Advances in Stem Cell Differentiation: From Mechanisms to Therapeutic Applications". This Special aims to highlight cutting-edge research that advances our understanding of how stem cells respond to diverse regulatory signals, as well as showcase how these insights can be translated into innovative therapeutic strategies.
We invite you to contribute original research articles, reviews, or perspectives focusing on the role of physical cues in stem cell differentiation. Studies exploring the impact of substrate stiffness, topography, mechanical loading, electrospinning, 3D bioprinting, biomaterial design, and bioelectrical signals are particularly welcome. We are especially interested in work that uncovers the underlying mechanisms through which these physical factors influence lineage specification and functional tissue formation.
Your expertise in this area will be a valuable addition to the issue, and we encourage you to share your latest findings with the community. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or wish to discuss the suitability of your topic.
We look forward to your contributions and to advancing the dialogue around the intersection of mechanobiology, biomaterials, and regenerative medicine.

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. Bioengineering 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 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.
