Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nature has inspired people for a long time. Thus, scientists have learned from nature and developed new models and strategies to overcome many concerns related to environmental pollution, health problems, energy resources, etc. Nowadays, biomimetics and bioinspiration are in the spotlight for scientists. Moreover, living systems have been used as a source of inspiration or as a raw matter to develop valuable materials that can be used in various applications from bionanomedicine to the environment and beyond.
This Special Issue kindly invites authors to contribute with original research articles and review papers related to biomimetics and bioinspiration applied in the biomedical field and environmental applications.

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. Biomimetics 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 2200 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.
