We are delighted to announce an open call for papers to our new themed collection focusing on protein cages!
Guest Editors: Kanchan Chauhan (Center of Nanosciences and Nanotechnology UNAM, Mexico), Rafael Vazquez Duhalt (CNyn-UNAM, Mexico), Sierin Lim (Nanyang Technological University, Singapore)
Submit before 28 February 2025
If you are interested in contributing to this collection, please get in touch with the Editorial Office by email.
This collection is run in connection with Symposium E8 that took place at 32nd International Material Research Congress (IMRC) in 18-23 August 2024.
The Guest Editors hope to present recent advances in the development of the proteinaceous compartments as diverse biomaterials for various applications including:
- Design, structure, and surface chemistry
- Catalysis
- Drug delivery
- Bioimaging
- Immunotherapies
- Biosensors
- Multimodal nanoplatform
- Vaccines
- Environmental remediation
- Agricultural applications
- Cosmetics
- Wound healing
- Symbiosis with other materials
We are happy to consider both review articles and primary research work. You may also be interested in this recently completed collection in Journal of Materials Chemistry B: Protein Cages.
Please note that article processing charges apply to all articles submitted to Materials Advances if, following peer-review, they are accepted for publication. Exceptions include researchers at Research4Life Group A and B countries, and those whose institutes have an existing deal that covers publication in our gold open access journals. Details of the APC and discounted rates can be found here.
Did you know?
At Materials Advances, our themed collections are built by collaboration between our Guest Editors and expert Associate Editors. Our Guest Editors guide the scope and curate the contributions in our collections but all submissions are handled through peer review by our team of resident Associate Editors. This means that as an author you receive a consistent experience, and as a reader you can trust the quality of the science being presented.
We hope you will consider contributing to this new collection.
