Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The overarching aim of ICDAR 2025 is to advance understanding and innovation in cardiovascular development, anatomy, and regeneration, thereby contributing to the broader progress of cardiovascular science and medicine. This Special Issue will feature selected papers from the International Cardiovascular Development Anatomy and Regeneration Meeting (ICDAR 2025) and will highlight research across several key domains of multidisciplinary expertise: developmental mechanisms of the heart and vasculature, structural and functional cardiovascular anatomy, regenerative strategies and therapies, and translational applications in cardiovascular health and disease.
This Special Issue is in collaboration with the International Cardiovascular Development Anatomy and Regeneration Meeting (ICDAR 2025). It will provide an opportunity to showcase state-of-the-art research, review recent advances, and offer a strategic outlook on future directions in cardiovascular development and regenerative medicine. All speakers and poster presenters participating in this meeting are invited to submit a manuscript for consideration in this Special Issue. We also warmly welcome submissions from scholars who did not attend the meeting but are engaged in related areas of research.
Prof. Dr. Diego Franco Jaime
Guest Editor
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. Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease 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 2700 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.
