Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanogel is a promising drug-delivery vector in the improvement of the effects of antitumor drugs. Many kinds of nanogels have been developed to encapsulate antitumor drugs. Nanogels can be prepared with the physical assembly method or the chemical synthetic method. Hydrogel is widely used in drug delivery and tissue engineering. Many kinds of methods have been developed to prepare functional hydrogels, such as wound-healing materials, biosensing materials, and cytoskeletons.
This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for in-depth discussion on the strategies for the development of nanosized, hydrogel-based materials. We welcome papers exploring topics including, but not limited to, the following: approaches to synthesizing nanogels; various applications of nanogels in drug delivery and tissue engineering.

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.
