Don’t forget Journal of Materials Chemistry is publishing a themed issue on Materials for Biosurfaces. Please contact the editorial office if you would like to contribute an article. The Guest Editors of this themed issue are Professor Christopher K. Ober (Cornell University, USA), Dr. Christian Ohm (Cornell University, USA), Ms. Mary E. Welch (Cornell University, USA).
The issue will focus on the synthetic and physical chemistry of biosurfaces with a primary attention to polymer based surfaces and the role of surfaces in biomedical related applications such as biosensors. Materials of interest include polymer brushes, hydrogels, membranes and self-assembled monolayers. The role of surfaces in cell adhesion and cell-surface interactions is also a topic of this special issue.
The deadline for the receipt of manuscripts for this themed issue is 20th March 2012
Manuscripts can be submitted using the RSC’s on-line submissions service. Please clearly state in the comment to editors section during submission that the manuscript is “submitted in response to the call for papers for the themed issue on Materials for Biosurfaces”.
