Recent Advancements in Wound Healing and Repair

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recent advancements in wound healing and repair have introduced innovative approaches, paving the way for faster and more effective recovery. These developments encompass the use of bioactive dressings, growth factors, stem cell therapy, and tissue engineering to enhance tissue regeneration and minimize scarring. Emphasizing personalized medicine, researchers are crafting tailored treatment strategies that address the unique needs of each patient.

Key research areas in this field include identifying biomarkers for wound healing, developing novel therapies, and investigating the microbiome's role in the healing process. Additionally, advancements in imaging technologies and computer modeling are offering new insights into the mechanisms of wound healing, ultimately improving treatment outcomes.

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.
