Aims &
Scope:
The tremendous
success in developing new nanomaterial and fostering technological
innovation arises from its focus on interdisciplinary research and
collaboration between physical and medical scientists. The concept of
nanobiomedicine is one of the most important ideas ever generated by
the applications of nanoscience to medical fields. Although there have
been extensive interdisciplinary activities, major collaborative
efforts are needed to jointly address some of the most challenging
issues in life and medical sciences... more
The inaugural
issue of Nano LIFE includes review articles authored by authorities in
both nano and biomedical sciences, and original research results that
will address the most critical challenges in nanoscience and
biomedicine. Nano LIFE aims to publish top and frontier research
