Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Despite several technological advances, the worldwide mortality and morbidity due to cardiovascular diseases continue to occur at a staggering rate. The last 10 years have seen a particular focus and emphasis on regenerative approaches towards restoring cardiovascular function. These include but are not limited to one or more of the following: exosomal biology, stem cells, mechanical conditioning, novel biomaterials, proteomics, and genomics. The field of regenerative medicine has the potential to facilitate a major breakthrough in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The intent of this Special Issue in the journal Bioengineering, entitled “Cell and Tissue Mechanics in Cardiovascular Regenerative Medicine”, is to encourage you and your team to contribute your recent findings on this topic. Kindly refer to the Keywords and Manuscript Submission Information below. I look forward to receiving your submission to this Special Issue of Bioengineering.
Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Sharan Ramaswamy
Dr. Jun Liao

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.
