Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ever since the invention of lenses, man has not only looked into the skies, but also into the realm of the “invisible” microscopic world of tissues, cells, and micro-organisms. The use of fluorescent labels and the development of various forms of optical microscopy, particularly confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), super-resolution microscopy (SRM), and intravital microscopy (IVM), have significantly advanced our knowledge about the basic mechanisms underpinning biology and the pathophysiological processes that lead to disease.
This Special Issue focuses exclusively on intravital, super-resolution, and life cell microscopy techniques which are developed to study cellular and subcellular events in health and diseases.
Previously unpublished experimental, theoretical, prospective, and review papers (with the exception of preprint servers) are solicited on the following and related topics:
- Intravital imaging of animal model tissues to study cellular dynamics in acute or chronic set up (longitudinal imaging);
- Generation of novel animal models to study cellular and subcellular events;
- Recent advances in intravital imaging technology to study cellular dynamics behavior in vivo for instance through an imaging window or optical fibers;
- Advances in super-resolution microscopy technologies;
- New developments in life cell imaging in general;
- Advances in fluorescence microscopy techniques, such as FRET, FLIM, FRAP, FLIP et al., with respect to life cell imaging;
- Correlative microscopy;
- Fundamental physicochemical properties, synthesis, and modification of novel fluorophores for imaging.

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. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
