Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanomaterials are revolutionizing biomedical research and cell biology by enabling innovative approaches in drug delivery, diagnostics, and regenerative medicine. Their nanoscale size, tunable properties, and high biocompatibility allow precise interactions with biological systems, opening new frontiers in therapeutic and diagnostic applications.
This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances in the development and application of nanomaterials for biomedical research. We welcome contributions on a range of topics, including but not limited to the following:
- Nanoparticle-based drug and gene delivery systems;
- Biofunctional nanomaterials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine;
- Nanotechnology-driven imaging and diagnostic platforms;
- Understanding nanomaterial–cell interactions and their biological effects;
- Translational challenges and safety considerations in clinical applications.
This Special Issue seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and advance the development of nanomaterials for improved therapeutic and diagnostic outcomes. Therefore, we invite researchers from diverse disciplines, including nanomedicine, bioengineering, materials science, and molecular biology, to contribute their latest findings.
By bringing together cutting-edge research and expert perspectives, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the evolving role of nanotechnology in biomedical science, addressing both its potential and future challenges.

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. 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.
