The International Organizing Committee of BioMetals 2021 is proud to announce that Bioactive Materials (IF2019: 8,724), a KeAi young open-access young journal with a strong ambition, endorsed the Symposium and will provide strong collaboration to highlight the scientific content of the Symposium. Regular papers, reviews and short communications will be published in a special issue (after regular submission to the Journal and full peer-review).

The main topics of consideration for this special issue will include:

Materials development, design, processes, surfaces and interfaces;
Corrosion, processes, degradation, assessment, standardization procedures;
In vitro works, including the assessment of the performances by in vitro processes;
In vivo results, prediction of the preclinical and clinical performances, methods for assessing the in vivo results, including imaging, non-destructive testing, and others;
Any other pertinent research devoted to biodegradable metals

Although Bioactive Materials is a young journal, please note that the impact of this special issue comprising a whole cluster of papers focused on biodegradable metals. The special issue will be limited to 18 manuscripts, so start planning today your next paper in the special issue on Biodegradable Metals in Bioactive Materials. Deadline for submission is 31 October 2020.

Bioactive Materials is an open access journal. Fees for publishing apply (840 US$). However, for manuscripts submitted during the free week (19-25 October 2020), open access fees will be waived.
