Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Materials that are manipulated at the nanoscale have unique properties compared to their bulk counterparts. Nanomaterials are characterized by controlled morphology and geometry, providing superior electrical, chemical, physical, and optical properties. Due to increased public health awareness, nanostructured materials are becoming increasingly used in biomedical applications. Therefore, it is important to develop the controlled synthesis of nanomaterials and characterize them using various methods to understand their molecular functions. However, safety concerns have slowed the implementation of new nanomaterials in biomedicine compared to other fields. While some nanomaterials exhibit excellent intra- and extra-cellular interactions, their biocompatibility restricts their use for therapeutic and tissue-engineering purposes. For various biomedical applications, it is crucial to select appropriate nanomaterials and understand their physiological interactions with tissues. By collaborating on nanomaterial research, biomedical applications could be expanded more rapidly.
This Special Issue of Bioengineering on Emerging Nanomaterials and Nanotechnologies for Biomedical Applications aims to gather original research papers and comprehensive reviews from global experts to review the progress made in the development of various novel nanomaterials and nanotechnologies for biomedical applications.

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.
