Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the realm of biomedical research, the fusion of biomaterials, polymer processing, and drug design heralds a new era of innovation and breakthroughs. With a focus on leveraging biomaterials for drug delivery systems, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine, this interdisciplinary field is poised to significantly improve healthcare.
This Special Issue, entitled “Biomaterial Applications in Polymer Processing and Drug Design”, is dedicated to showcasing the latest advancements in this dynamic area of study. From novel polymer processing methodologies like electrospinning and micoinjection molding, to the synthesis and characterization of biomaterials tailored for specific biomedical applications, this issue aims to illuminate the cutting-edge research driving progress within the field.

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
