Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapidly evolving fields of volume electron and analytical electron microscopy hold transformative potential for life sciences, biomedical sciences, and biomaterials. They continue to provide novel insights that have advanced and extended our understanding of these fields. This Special Issue aims to foster a deeper understanding of how volume electron and analytical electron microscopy can effectively enhance and transform the fields of life sciences, biomedical sciences, and biomaterials sciences. This Special Issue will bring together imaging scientists to share their latest findings, methodologies, applications, and insights in volume electron and analytical electron microscopy by highlighting new technologies, cutting-edge research, and their applications in life, biomedical, and biomaterial sciences.

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.
