Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nanotechnology has emerged as a pivotal tool for designing and creating functional biomaterials with unique characteristics tailored to meet specific needs across various fields of science and technology. In particular, functional bionanomaterials in biomedicine offer a wide range of applications in medicine, including cancer treatment, tissue regeneration, respiratory diseases, and so forth. Bionanomaterials can be constructed using organic components (lipids, natural, and synthetic polymers), inorganic materials (metals, metallic oxides, and metals alloys), or a combination of both. These materials are designed to load, transport, and deliver bioactive compounds—such as drugs, proteins, and peptides, among others—to target specific diseases effectively. This Special Issue aims to gather original and innovative reviews, as well as research articles, focused on the development of functional bionanomaterials with potential applications in the treatment of respiratory diseases. The objective is to provide the scientific community and interested readers with cutting-edge insights into functional bionanomaterials and their promising applications in the treatment of respiratory disease.

I look forward to receiving your contributions.

Dr. Josué Juárez
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. 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.
