Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue highlights the growing interest in recent advances in molecular materials and biomedicine. Biomedicine is an important engineering field related to improving the level of medical diagnosis and human health, and is the base of academic research and innovation of biomedical information, gene chip, nanotechnology, new materials, and other technologies. With the development of materials science and molecular technology, various molecular materials have received more and more attention in biomedical fields such as biosensing, medical imaging, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and targeted drug delivery, including quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, protein nanostructures, gold nanoshells, various inorganic/organic materials, liposomes, and molecular structure composite materials. Although molecular materials have made great progress in the field of biomedicine, further in-depth and comprehensive exploration is still needed, such as natural biological materials (such as cells, viruses, exosomes, protein molecules and other organisms; or shells, coral, bones, insect wings and other natural mineralized materials), a variety of synthetic molecular materials and so on. We welcome the submission of original article, review, and communication.
This Special issue is supervised by Dr. Shijing Wang, who is assisted by our Topical Advisory Panel Member <[email protected]> (Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School, Tsinghua University, Shenzhen, China).
Dr. Jiangmin Jiang

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.
