Biomaterials Science is a peer reviewed scientific journal published by the Royal Society of Chemistry in collaboration with the Institute for Integrated Cell Material Sciences, Kyoto University, Japan. It is an international journal publishing original (primary) research and review articles bringing together the molecular and mesoscopic interactions of biomaterials and their potential applications. Biomaterials Science was launched in 2013 and publishes 12 issues a year. The editorial team is headed by Professor Philip B. Messersmith of Northwestern University, USA, Professor Norio Nakatsuji of Kyoto University, Japan and Dr Liz Dunn of the Royal Society of Chemistry.

Scope
Biomaterials Science covers a broad scope from the fundamental science of biomaterials to their potential biomedical applications. the main focus of the journal includes (but is not limited to):


 * 1) Mesoscopic science of cells and materials
 * 2) Molecular design of biomaterials
 * 3) Materials for nanomedicine and drug delivery systems
 * 4) Materials for stem cell research
 * 5) Tissue Engineering and regenerative medicine
 * 6) Nanomaterials at the biointerface
 * 7) Biologically inspired and biomimetic materials
 * 8) Interfacial phenomena in biomineralization

Article Types
Biomaterials Science publishes the following types of articles: Communications (original scientific work that is of an urgent nature), Full Papers (original scientific work), Reviews (overviews of research in a particular area of biomaterial science) and Mini-Reviews (highlights of research in an emerging area).

Readership
Biomaterials Science has a global circulation and interdisciplinary readership. This includes academic, government and industrial scientists from materials science, medical science, biology, chemistry, (bio)physics and engineering.
