Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, significant strides have been made in the development of bioengineering and in intelligent drug delivery systems. In the area of bioengineering, there are outstanding advances in biological therapy with proteins and antibodies, the development of new materials for tissue engineering, and the generation of biosensing systems. In parallel, as well as from advances in bioengineering, drug delivery and delivery systems have been successfully researched and developed with the idea of improving efficiency and thus reducing adverse drug effects.
These areas of development include various scientific aspects that must be addressed for the understanding of the processes involved and the development of efficient systems. In this context, the study of physical and chemical interactions between the components of biological systems, the relationships between biochemical mechanisms and the physiological implications of the processes studied have a significant impact on the success of new proposals.
This Special Issue brings together the new results of research related to the different aspects of bioengineering development focused on investigation of therapeutic alternatives, in addition to allowing the incorporation of reviews and short communications that offer readers a broad vision of the capabilities of these developing technologies.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Pharmaceutics 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 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.
