Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Marine biotechnology is rapidly gaining recognition in providing the innovative drive for scientific solutions and products across a range of sectors including biomedical, agrichemical, aquaculture, and environmental industries.
The 3rd ANZMBS conference will be held at UNSW Sydney Australia on May 20–22nd 2019. This conference aims to (1) facilitate collaborations between scientists, technologists, investors, government, industry, and the community; (2) inform educators and policymakers; and (3) promote science, knowledge exchange, and technology development. Authors are invited to submit papers on a wide range of topics related to marine biotechnology including, for example, the following:
- Natural products and drug discovery
- Aquaculture and fisheries
- Algal bioproducts and processes
- Ecosystem monitoring (including coastal and open ocean)
- Marine ecosystem engineering
- Environmental remediation
- Marine sustainability and restoration
- MARINE biotechnology policy and consultation
Marine Drugs and JMSE are pleased to announce a joint Special Issue, hosting contributions from 2019 ANZMBS conference.
We will consider original research articles and novel reviews. Attendees are encouraged to read carefully the Aims and Scope of the two journals, webpages (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/marinedrugs/about and https://www.mdpi.com/journal/JMSE/about), to decide which journal is suitable for their submissions. Manuscripts will go through strict peer-review before publication. The submission deadline is 20 December 2019.

A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Marine Drugs 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 2900 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
