Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanomedicine has emerged in recent years to meet real needs relying on nanotechnologies, such as drug delivery in the form of nanoparticles and the targeting of cancer cells without affecting healthy cells, for example. Given the current situation with the epidemics (COVID-19, flu, etc.), it becomes necessary to find ways to detect bacteria and viruses invisible to the naked eye, to protect us.
Advanced materials for bio-devices at micro- or nano-metric scales are of particular interest for basic science as well as for applied research in the field of molecular or bacterial biosensing.
Microsystems play a very important role in many biological and environmental applications. The integration of advanced materials in such miniaturized systems offers new opportunities for molecular or bacterial detection where high sensitivity and selectivity to the analyte are required.
This Special Issue is dedicated to new trends related to the use of advanced materials for biomedical applications.

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.
