Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wound healing is a dynamic physiological process frequently impaired by aging, comorbidities, or infections, leading to chronic wounds with profound clinical and socioeconomic impacts. Despite advances in biomaterials, regenerative therapies, multi-omics integration, and precision medicine, challenges persist in understanding molecular heterogeneity and translating discoveries into effective treatments.
This Special Issue, “Advances in Wound Healing”, seeks to highlight cutting-edge research spanning molecular mechanisms, novel therapeutic interventions, and clinical applications. We welcome original articles and reviews addressing topics such as the following:
- Advances in various acute and chronic wound management (such as diabetic ulcers and pressure injuries);
- Genomic, proteomic, epigenetic, and transcriptional insights into wound healing and post-wound healing events like scars and keloids;
- In vitro/in vivo models for mechanistic studies;
- Innovative biomaterials (such as smart dressings, hydrogels, and nanotechnologies);
- Clinical trials, translational research, and interdisciplinary approaches.

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. Biomedicines 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 2600 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.
