Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of our journal, we are excited to introduce the Special Issue “10th Anniversary of Inorganics: Bioinorganic Chemistry”. This Special Issue aims to collect original research articles or comprehensive review papers focused on recent advances in the following topics: the structures, functions and mechanisms of metalloenzymes; modern methods to determine their structure; the synthesis and characterization of transition metal complexes as model systems mimicking the structure, spectroscopic properties and function of biomolecules; theoretical simulations; the role of metal ions in biology and medicine; interaction of metal ions and small molecules containing them with biological molecules; metal-based drugs and their mechanisms of action, etc. Moreover, in order to be more visible and have a greater impact, we encourage submissions on this topic from a wide range of authors, and you are welcome to invite relevant authors to participate.
We look forward to receiving your valued contributions on this exciting occasion.
Prof. Dr. Vladimir Arion

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Inorganics 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.
