Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Many research groups worldwide try every day to overcome the obstacles that arise in implementing new technologies in medicine and biotechnology. The 3D printing process requires a multidisciplinary approach and a combination of knowledge from the frontiers of medicine, biology, chemistry, mechanics, and physics. As a result, new methods for producing 3D biological structures dedicated to a specific type of patient and application are regularly being developed. Sometimes, minor modifications, such as the method of extrusion, make a big difference in the bioprinting of models with a specific purpose and properties. Advanced applications of 3D printing require knowledge of the current state of the global market on both scientific and industrial grounds. Due to the multitude of new additive technologies and materials used/applied, it is necessary to pay attention to research in this area to improve the design process and production of 3D models of structures used in biomedical applications using additive methods.

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.
