Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Materials science and engineering are continuously developing tools that are potentially useful in biological and biomedical applications. Interestingly, concepts related to molecular and cellular biology are now being used to yield approaches with biological rationale, biocompatible and/or bioactive, and useful for novel in vitro testing strategies and in vivo regenerative advanced therapies (gene therapy, cell therapy, and tissue engineering).
This Special Issue of IJMS will compile original scientific experimental articles and comprehensive reviews focused on using “Cells and Materials for Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine” purposes. It will cover in vitro and in vivo strategies based on cell-material interactions, targeting any tissue and aiming to respond to any physiological and/or pathological question relevant to the field.

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.
