Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanomaterials are profoundly transforming the field of biomedicine, emerging as crucial tools in addressing a wide range of health-related challenges. Their unique advantage lies in precisely tailoring their physical, chemical, and biological properties, enabling the development of advanced medical solutions. By modifying structural parameters, such as shape and size, researchers induce significant alterations in the materials' chemical behaviors and structural stability, facilitating precise customization to enhance their functionality in specific biological contexts. In recent years, we have seen an increasing amount of interest in exploring how these engineered physicochemical properties influence the performance and effectiveness of nanomaterials in biomedical applications.
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in synthesizing and applying nanomaterials in biomedicine. We welcome original research articles and review papers investigating innovative synthesis methodologies, cutting-edge functionalization strategies, and the practical applications of nanomaterials across diverse areas. Topics of interest include but are not limited to, targeted drug delivery systems, bioimaging techniques, cancer immunotherapy strategies, nanovaccine innovations, and antimicrobial applications.
By compiling a wide range of contributions, we aim to highlight the transformative potential of nanotechnology in healthcare, paving the way for novel solutions that may redefine patient care and outcomes.

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. Molecules 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 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.
