Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polymer composites have emerged as promising materials for various biomedical applications due to their unique properties and the ability to tailor their composition and structure for specific needs. This Special Issue highlights the latest research and developments in polymer composites for biomedical applications, covering topics such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, implants, and diagnostic devices.
The Special Issue welcomes submissions that focus on the synthesis, material development, characterization, and application of polymer composites in biomedicine.
The Special Issue will feature original research articles and review articles that present novel ideas, methodologies, and applications of polymer composites in the biomedical field. Contributions from both experimental and theoretical perspectives are welcome.
By bringing together researchers from various disciplines, including materials science, biomedical engineering, and polymer chemistry, this Special Issue aims to foster interdisciplinary collaborations among different research fields.

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. Polymers is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.
