Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Smart nanomaterials are of great interest in the field of bioengineering and biomedicine due to their unique structure and functional characteristics. Unlike traditional materials, smart nanomaterials have special optical, magnetic, electrical and mechanical properties, with potential applications in biosensors and in disease diagnosis and treatment. These smart nanomaterials are powerful and promising tools and could address the limitations of traditional diagnostic and therapeutic methods, such as the lack of diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic efficiency. Recent advances in smart nanomaterials and medical research have revealed new possibilities for disease diagnosis and treatment.
In this Special Issue on "Smart Nanomaterials for Therapy and Imaging", driven by growing concern in the field of biomaterials, we aim to highlight cutting-edge research on nano-biomaterials and the benefits of their high efficiency and novel characteristics for disease treatment and biological imaging.

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.
