Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanomaterials have been identified in various environmental settings and are present across all forms of life, from bacteria to archaea and eukaryota. The potential adverse effects of these nanomaterials, including changes in normal composition and accumulation in organisms, can impact protists, plants, fungi, and animals. Moreover, their expanding use in agriculture, healthcare, and medicine further increases exposure to living organisms.
This Special Issue seeks high-quality review papers encompassing all fields of nanomaterials for biology and medicine. We warmly encourage researchers from related fields to contribute review papers that highlight the latest advancements, including bio-nanomaterials, nanomedicines, drug and gene delivery, cancer therapy, wound healing, tissue engineering, diagnostics, bio-imaging, antimicrobial applications, immune system modulation, biocompatibility, biomimetic properties, and 3D bioprinting, among others. Full-length comprehensive reviews will be given preference for inclusion in this impactful Special Issue.
Prof. Dr. Eleonore Fröhlich
Guest Editor
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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
