Open Call For Papers: Nanoengineered Biomaterials for Anticancer and Antimicrobial Drug Targeting
Guest edited by Kavindra K. Kesari, Sabya S. Das and Janne Ruokolainen.
We are delighted to announce a call for papers for our latest online themed collection in Materials Advances on Nanoengineered Biomaterials for Anticancer and Antimicrobial Drug Targeting that is being guest edited by Kavindra K. Kesari (Aalto University, Finland and Lovely Professional University, India), Sabya S. Das (University of Iowa College of Pharmacy, USA and DIT University, India) and Janne Ruokolainen (Aalto University, Finland).
Nanoengineered biomaterials have been shown to possess enhanced physicochemical and biological properties, leading to their increasingly widespread use for diverse biomedical applications. This themed collection broadly focuses on nanoengineered biomaterials targeting cancer and microbial infections theranostics which includes:
- Nano-phytotherapeutics
- Biogenic nano-biomaterials
- Cancer therapeutic approaches
- Antimicrobial therapeutic approaches
- Nano-biomaterials based sensors
- Overcoming drug resistance
- Redox biology mechanism
- Photothermal and photodynamic therapy
- Toxicological and drug-polymer stability studies
- Clinical and preclinical aspects.
Open for submissions until 31 March 2024
If you would like to contribute to this themed collection, you can submit your article directly through the Materials Advances online submission system. Please mention that this submission is a contribution to the Nanoengineered Biomaterials for Anticancer and Antimicrobial Drug Targeting collection in the “Themed issues” section of the submission form and add a “Note to the Editor” that this is from the Open Call. The Editorial Office reserves the right to check suitability of submissions in relation to the scope of both the journal and the collection, and inclusion of accepted articles in the final themed issue is not guaranteed.
Please also note that all submissions will undergo our normal rigorous peer review processes including an initial assessment prior to peer review, and that peer review and acceptance are not guaranteed. All accepted manuscripts will be subject to an article-processing charge (APC) unless your institute has an existing agreement with the RSC that covers publications in our gold open access journals. More information about charges, discounts, and waivers are available here. Corresponding authors who are not already members of the Royal Society of Chemistry are entitled to one year’s Affiliate membership as part of their APC. Find out more about our member benefits.
If you have any questions about the journal or the collection, then our team would be happy to answer them. You can contact us by emailing the journal inbox.
With best wishes,
