Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
HREM is a digital volume data generation technique that offers near-histological detail in virtual 3D data of whole embryos of biomedical model organisms as well as small tissue samples. Introduced over 10 years ago, the HREM user community is steadily growing, and employs the method for phenotyping genetically engineered mouse embryos, biomedically challenged chick embryos and embryos of several other model organisms, as well as normal and pathological tissue samples of adult biomedical models and humans. Quite recently HREM also found its way into multimodal imaging pipelines, providing for the holistic visualization of normal and pathologic morphology and physiology of organisms at all levels of resolution. We invite authors to submit review articles focusing on applying HREM in various fields of biomedical research.

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. Biomedicines 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 2600 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.
