Biomolecules and Biomarkers in Head and Neck Medicine

Dear Colleagues,

In each of these fields, in the last few years, a range of new biomolecules and biomarkers associated with disease have been discovered and pursued, and a multitude of robust innovative diagnostic assays have been established. Biodiagnostics is therefore a rapidly evolving field; however, many questions and problems remain unresolved. The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight biological functions, activities, and interactions of biomolecules within the head and neck region and to focus on the diagnostics of a plethora of head and neck pathologies using biomarkers in blood, saliva, and from tissue. These diseases include head and neck cancers, oral mucosal diseases, salivary gland diseases, infectious diseases, autoimmune and immune-mediated disorders, and orofacial pain, among others. We welcome your contribution to this Special Issue and look forward to working with you to advance knowledge and collaboration in the broad area of head and neck medicine. Your contribution is very welcome!

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
