Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to submit papers on the synthesis and characterization of biomaterials for regenerative medicine (RM). RM and accompanying tissue engineering (TE) are rapidly developing fields that focus, among other matters, on searching for new biomaterials’ compositions that fill or restore the function of the damaged/lost tissues. This Special Issue focuses on ceramic, metal, and polymer biomaterials and their composites, both in micro and nano structural form.
This Special Issue will present new, valuable knowledge about biomaterials fabricated via novel or modified production techniques, which include not only new methods using, e.g., 3D printing, electrospinning, etc., but also conventional methods that have not been combined so far or can obtain biomaterials with new properties. This Special Issue will also to present the detailed physico-chemical, mechanical and biological characterization of biomaterials and their practical applications in regenerative medicine.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but not limited to) the following: biomaterials with enhanced regenerative activity, biomaterials with antibacterial properties, biomaterials with anticancer properties, and biomaterials for diagnostics.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
