Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure we invite you to contribute a research article or review to this Special Issue entitled ‘Biomaterial Innovations for Tissue Engineering and Regeneration’, which is anticipated to include topics on advancements in biomaterials’ rational design, synthesis, modification, characterization, and processing, and their utilization in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Innovative biofunctional and biomimetic biomaterials present efficient platforms that support specific biological responses towards tissue repair and regeneration. The field of instructive, smart, responsive, and intelligent biomaterials is evolving as an emerging research area. The field aims to navigate complex, multifaceted physicochemical, mechanical, and biological cues in vitro and in vivo, frequently under mechanical, electrical, and magnetic stimulation. Biomaterials of natural and synthetic origin, as well as hybrids and composites, are developed and processed via cutting-edge technologies including 3D printing, bioprinting, electrospinning, and electrowriting to biofabricate favorable structures for regeneration-competent cells and biomolecules as tissue analogs or implantable grafts, eventually enabling tissue and organ regeneration.

In this view, this Special Issue aims to offer deep insights into the significance of biomaterials as essential components driving progress in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. We invite your valuable contributions to this multidisciplinary communication platform to enrich this exciting field.

Prof. Dr. Maria Chatzinikolaidou

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. Biomolecules 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.
