Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Along with technological advancements in the bioanalytical field, modern metabolomics techniques are powerful tools capable of offering comprehensive snapshots of metabolic changes occurring in the human body, providing critical insights into physiological processes, disease pathogenesis, and potential biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment. Translating these observations to clinical practice often involves deciphering intricate disease mechanisms. Together with other “omics” technologies, metabolomics plays a pivotal role in personalized medicine, reflecting individual responses to diseases or treatments.
This Special Issue of Metabolites is focused on mass-spectrometry-based metabolomics in the context of personalized medicine, and investigators are invited to present their relevant research results. This Special Issue aims to focus on relevant advancements using mass spectrometry tools for metabolomic research, with a focus on personalized medicine. These topics may include biomarker discovery and validation for diagnosis and disease stratification, together with methodological advancements and integration with other “omics” technologies to better understand metabolic pathway alterations.

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. Metabolites 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 2700 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.
