Next-Generation Biomaterials and Regenerative Strategies for Precision Tissue Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

Tissue engineering is entering a new era, one defined by precision, personalization, and the seamless integration of technology and biology. From smart biomaterials that respond to their environment to bioprinted tissues designed for specific patients, the boundaries of what we can create are rapidly expanding.

This Special Issue, “Next-Generation Biomaterials and Regenerative Strategies for Precision Tissue Engineering,” brings together the latest advances shaping this exciting frontier. We welcome contributions from researchers and clinicians who are exploring how advanced materials, biofabrication tools, and regenerative techniques can work together to create tissues that truly mimic or even surpass nature.

We invite original research articles, reviews, and short communications that highlight the innovative ideas and technologies driving precision tissue engineering. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Smart and responsive biomaterials with tunable biological or mechanical properties;

- 3D and 4D bioprinting approaches to create complex and functional tissues;

- Bioactive scaffolds and hydrogels that guide cell behavior and regeneration;

- Stem cell-based and acellular regenerative strategies;

- Computational and AI-based design for personalized biomaterial systems;

- In situ tissue regeneration and smart implant technologies;

- Translational and clinical studies that advance next-generation biomaterials.

Through this Special Issue, we aim to highlight groundbreaking work that not only pushes scientific boundaries but also brings us closer to real-world applications that improve human health and quality of life.

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.
