Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid development of new approaches and techniques in molecular biology has led to new insights in medicine regarding clinical applications and biomaterial science for tissue engineering approaches. More specifically, investigative methods within molecular biology have made progress in uncovering fundamental medical processes that are revealed when we fully understand their molecular details. Cloning tools, CRISPR/Cas9 technology, DNA arrays, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) are some of the tools used in guiding drug discovery and developing diagnostic methods. The information that arises thanks to their use, in addition to patients’ reported outcomes, covers all the elements that we must take into consideration in routine clinical decision-making strategies to optimize treatment benefits for patients. Additionally, as molecular biologists progressively discover the pathogenetic mechanisms that underly several entities, evidence regarding the correct combination of extracellular and intracellular chemical gradients, cellular attachment complexes and other stimuli required to activate tissue regeneration is revealed. The aim of this Special Issue is to gather relevant new insights and updates from the fields of medicine, biomaterials, and tissue engineering under the prism of molecular biology tools to obtain a more comprehensive view of the obstacles and challenges that are raised.

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 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. Current Issues in Molecular Biology 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.
