Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Tissue engineering is currently attracting ever-more attention because it could resolve the challenge of properly repairing tissue defects larger than the critical size. Biomimetic microenvironments have crucial effects on tissue regeneration. Therefore, over the last two decades or so, many studies have focused on bioengineering biomimetic microenvironments by appropriately controlling the components and structures of implanting scaffolds, mainly including selecting original materials, designing and constructing scaffolds, optimizing and modifying scaffolds, loading biological molecules, culturing cells, etc. Meanwhile, many in vitro and in vivo experiments have been launched to explore the effectiveness of the above strategies and reveal the related mechanisms. This is relevant to materials science, engineering, chemistry, biological science, medicine, biofabrication, sensor technologies, and many more fields.

This Special Issue, titled “Bioengineering of Biomimetic Microenvironments for Tissue Engineering 2025”, calls for contributions from researchers and thinkers in all realms of the above fields and welcomes theoretical, experimental, and review contributions from biomimetics experts, biologists, material scientists, engineers, medical scientists, and therapists who are engaged and interested in this fast-growing 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 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. Biomimetics 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 2200 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.
