Anatomy and Regenerative Medicine: From Methods to Applications (2nd Edition)

Dear Colleagues,

Anatomy and regenerative medicine (RM) are two strongly interconnected disciplines. The promising field of regenerative medicine may be defined as replacing or "regenerating" human cells, tissues, or organs to restore or establish normal functions. Beginning from the basics provided by human anatomy remains the best approach. Years of studies of and insights into the composition of the human body offer a solid starting ground on which to develop new therapeutic paths. Macro-anatomy data contribute to the replacement/healing of entire organs, and nanotechnology uses micro-anatomy discoveries.

RM can offer a modern solution to existing long-term problems. There are many application fields, from stem-cell therapy to tissue engineering, from biomaterial 3D printing to artificial organs.

These applications' achievements often result from collaboration with scientists outside of the clinical area (bioengineers, materials engineers, biologists).

This Special Issue of Applied Biosciences, "Anatomy and Regenerative Medicine: From Methods to Applications (2nd Edition)", is committed to all discoveries and applications of RM. Research papers emphasizing the shift from anatomical data to practical applications will be particularly appreciated.

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. Applied Biosciences is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1200 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.
