Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in hematology have been driven by the integration of molecular biology, immunology, and clinical diagnostics. Progress in genomic analysis, immune profiling, and biomarker development is reshaping disease classification and informing therapeutic strategies across varied hematologic disorders.
This Special Issue will highlight studies that bridge molecular mechanisms with clinically relevant diagnosis and treatment. We welcome original research and reviews covering molecular diagnostics, disease biology, immunology, and therapeutic approaches in both malignant and non-malignant hematologic conditions.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, molecular diagnostics, hematopoietic cell transplantation, bone marrow failure, hematologic malignancies, laboratory biomarkers, and emerging therapeutic strategies.
Suggested themes and article types:
- Original research articles and reviews;
- Molecular diagnostics and disease classification in hematologic disorders;
- Disease biology, immunopathophysiology, and biomarker development;
- Hematopoietic cell transplantation, graft-versus-host disease, and immune reconstitution;
- Bone marrow failure and marrow microenvironment;
- Hematologic malignancies and plasma cell disorders;
- Emerging therapeutic strategies, including targeted and immune-based therapies;
- Translational studies linking molecular findings to clinical practice.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. 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.
