Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to announce a Special Issue on "Innovations in Biomaterials for Advanced Biomedical Applications", which aims to explore groundbreaking innovations in the intersection of biomaterials and medicine. This issue will showcase the latest developments in the design and application of biomaterials transforming the landscape of cancer treatment, wound care, and targeted drug delivery.
From nanoparticles to hydrogels, and from bioengineered scaffolds to immunomodulatory materials, this Special Issue will delve into how these advanced materials pave the way for more effective, personalized, and minimally invasive therapeutic strategies. By addressing key challenges such as tumor targeting, controlled drug release, and regenerative medicine, this collection of research promises to highlight the potential of biomaterials to revolutionize modern healthcare.
We invite contributions that reflect cutting-edge research, offering new insights into the various applications of biomaterials in improving therapeutic outcomes, reducing side effects, and enhancing patient care.
Key topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Novel biomaterials for targeted drug delivery and precision cancer therapies;
- Advanced biomaterials for real-time wound imaging and diagnostics;
- Bioengineered scaffolds promoting tissue regeneration and wound healing;
- Immunomodulatory biomaterials for enhanced cancer immunotherapy;
- Photothermal and photodynamic biomaterials for cancer treatment.

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.
