Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled "Advanced Biomaterials, Biodevices, and Their Application", aims to highlight recent breakthroughs in the design, development, and deployment of biomaterials and biodevices across medical, environmental, and industrial fields. As interdisciplinary innovations accelerate, novel biomaterials—ranging from smart polymers and bioinspired composites to tissue scaffolds and regenerative matrices—are increasingly integrated with advanced biodevices, such as biosensors, wearable systems, and implantable technologies. This Special Issue will focus on the synthesis, functionalization, characterization, and application of cutting-edge biomaterials, as well as the engineering and clinical translation of biodevices. Contributions will cover experimental studies, theoretical modeling, and real-world applications that address critical challenges in healthcare (e.g., diagnostics, drug delivery, and regenerative medicine), sustainable development, and personalized therapy. We invite original research articles, reviews, and case studies that explore new material–biodevice interfaces, biocompatibility assessments, scalable fabrication techniques, and emerging technologies, such as bioelectronics and soft robotics. This collection will serve as a comprehensive resource for scientists, engineers, and clinicians working to shape the next generation of biomaterials and biodevice innovations.

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. Micromachines 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 2100 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.
