Acta Biomaterialia is an international journal that publishes peer-reviewed original research reports, review
papers and communications in the broadly defined field of biomaterials science. The emphasis of the journal is on the relationship between
biomaterial structure and function at all length scales. The journal is committed to rapid peer-review and publication.
The scope
of Acta Biomaterialia includes:
- Hypothesis-driven design of biomaterials
- Biomaterial surface science linking structure
to biocompatibility, including protein adsorption and cellular interactions
- Biomaterial mechanical characterization and modeling
at all scales
- Molecular, statistical and other types of modeling applied to capture biomaterial behavior
- Interactions
of biological species with defined surfaces
- Combinatorial approaches to biomaterial development
- Structural biology
as it relates structure to function for biologically derived materials that have application as a medical material, or as it aids in
understanding the biological response to biomaterials
- Methods for biomaterial characterization
- Processing of biomaterials
to achieve specific functionality
- Materials development for arrayed genomic and proteomic screening
