Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore the transformative role of advanced nanoparticle-based materials in cancer therapies. It will highlight interdisciplinary research at the nexus of nanotechnology, immunology, oncology, and biomedical imaging. Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Smart nanomaterials for stimuli-responsive immunotherapy and imaging.
- Biomimetic or hybrid nanosystems targeting immune–tumor interactions.
- Nanovaccines and immune cell engineering.
- Multimodal imaging-guided immunotherapy monitoring.
- Toxicity, immune compatibility, and regulatory landscapes.
This Special Issue will extend prior work on single-function nanomaterials by curating studies on multifunctional systems, addressing gaps in clinical translation and mechanistic understanding. It will serve as a comprehensive resource for researchers and clinicians, bridging nanotechnology and oncology to inspire next-generation solutions.

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 Functional Biomaterials 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.
