Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent inventions of super-resolution microscopies have induced a revolution in molecular biology and enabled us to see various biological molecules, organelles, cells, and disease events at the nanoscale. In addition, evolutions of fluorescence imaging technologies have also contributed to progress in various areas of molecular biology. International Journal of Molecular Sciences will publish a Special Issue in 2023 to highlight studies in molecular biology that use fluorescence imaging and super-resolution microscopy.
We therefore invite reviews and research articles on the application of fluorescence imaging in molecular biology and super-resolution imaging in molecular biology.
We will collect a series of articles that include fluorescence imaging and super-resolution imaging in molecular biology, molecular disease biology, and methodologies of fluorescence and super-resolution imaging.
The related topics include, but are not limited to:
- Fluorescence imaging of biomolecules or organelles;
- Fluorescence imaging of the morphologies of cells;
- Fluorescence imaging in iPS cells or organoids;
- Fluorescence imaging in animal disease models;
- Methodologies of fluorescence imaging for molecular biology;
- Super-resolution imaging of biomolecules or organelles;
- Super-resolution imaging of the morphologies of cells;
- Super-resolution imaging in animal disease models;
- Super-resolution imaging in iPS cells or organoids;
- Methodologies of super-resolution microscopies for molecular biology.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
