Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming bioengineering in many disciplines by enabling faster, more accurate, and scalable solutions for healthcare. We have already seen several AI algorithms accelerating the translation of bioengineering innovations from laboratory research to clinical practice by analyzing complex biological data and modeling physiological systems. Several key areas of clinical translation of bioengineering research would benefit from AI-enhanced approaches, especially in medical imaging and diagnostics, biomaterials and tissue engineering, genomics and precision medicine, wearables and digital health, and computational modeling and simulation (digital twins). Several clinical translation challenges remain due to data issues, model generalizability, ethical and regulatory barriers, and integration into clinical workflows, which need to be addressed immediately for positive outcomes. Additionally, focusing on explainable AI (XAI), multimodal AI, real-time AI and AI-driven clinical trials, is crucial to enabling faster and more reliable solutions for patients and clinical practice. There is no doubt that AI is becoming a central enabler in bioengineering, offering tools to bridge the gap between research and clinical translation.
We solicit original articles and review papers that cover any of these topics encompassing:
AI-powered bioengineering that has the potential to accelerate personalized medicine, improve patient outcomes, and revolutionize healthcare delivery.

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.
