Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A new section of Marine Drugs (ISSN 1660-3397), “Marine Biotechnology Related to Drug Discovery or Production”, has been launched. The section aims to collect papers that report on the application of advanced technologies to marine organisms in terms of drug discovery and production.
We are pleased to announce a Special Issue to commemorate the launch of this section. We invite scientists to submit reviews or original research articles studying bioinformatics, culturing techniques, multi-omics, therapeutic biotechnology (gene therapy, peptide inhibitors, enzymes), nanobiotechnology, etc., to further the knowledge regarding marine drug discovery and development.
Kind regards,
Dr. Ipek Kurtboke
Guest Editor
