Advances in Wound Healing and Regenerative Medicine
This special issue belongs to the section “Regenerative Engineering“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore emerging perspectives in wound healing and regenerative medicine, bridging clinical needs and basic science innovations. We invite original research articles, reviews, and short communications focusing on novel strategies, materials, cellular therapies, and translational models that enhance tissue repair, angiogenesis, and functional regeneration. Topics may include, but are not limited to, tissue-engineered scaffolds, stem cell-based interventions, extracellular matrix remodeling, immune modulation, and the integration of microsurgery in regenerative approaches.
Wound healing and regenerative medicine represent rapidly evolving fields that aim to restore tissue integrity and function following injury or disease. Traditional wound management focuses on minimizing infection and promoting closure, but recent advances emphasize regenerative strategies that enhance tissue repair and reduce scarring. Emerging technologies—such as bioactive scaffolds, stem cell therapies, growth factor delivery systems, and gene editing—hold great promise for improving healing outcomes, particularly in chronic wounds, burns, and diabetic ulcers. Additionally, innovations in biomaterials, 3D bioprinting, and immunomodulation are reshaping therapeutic approaches by mimicking native tissue environments and accelerating regeneration.
We look forward to your contributions that will advance both the scientific community’s understanding and clinical applications in this rapidly evolving field.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
