Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following the continued success of the second edition of “Obstetrics and Gynecology Medicine: From Bench to Bedside” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/life/special_issues/28513V6RW5), we are now preparing the third edition and would like to invite you to submit your research for consideration.
This Special Issue continues to highlight the importance of translational research, which aims to bridge the gap between laboratory studies and clinical demands by converting the achievements of basic science into everyday clinical practice. An efficient translational process is sustained by the mutual synergy of academic laboratory research and public/private hospitals. However, the process of transforming research innovation into new health products, as well as diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, remains a major issue in contemporary biomedical medicine. Among different fields of applications, over the last few decades, obstetrics and gynecology have experienced a dramatic increase in several clinical and technical upgrades based on translational research discoveries. Improvements in the quality of life of cancer patients, treatments for pathological pregnancies, drug discoveries, identification of new diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers, stem cell applications, the discovery of new molecular pathways involved in obstetrics and gynecology pathophysiology, and automation in assisted reproductive technologies represent only a few examples of the clinical application of basic research. This Special Issue aims to collect original papers and innovative review articles detailing the use of basic research in translational studies of obstetrics and gynecology to assist and support clinical practice in the near future.
