Journal Guide

issue Engineering is the premier biomedical journal that brings together the principles of engineering and life sciences to generate new tissue development. It is a forum for groundbreaking scientific research and clinical application from the leading experts in the field. This multidisciplinary journal publishes cutting-edge, breakthrough research and applications on all aspects of tissue growth and regeneration.Anthony Atala, member of the Executive Editorial Board, when interviewed on a 60 Minutes segment, spoke about Regenerative Medicine and current developments in growing body parts. Dr. Atala is the director at Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine, which is currently growing various tissues for regenerating several body parts including bladders and kidneys, providing endless possibilities for the future of this field.During the interview, Dr. Atala explained “…the hope of the field is that some day we can provide replacement tissues and organs that can be used to help transplant patients who are waiting for organs to survive. Every organ in our body contains special stem cells that are unique to each body part. The key to regeneration is to isolate and then multiply those cells until there are enough to cover a mold of that particle body part.” The field of tissue engineering provides infinite possibilities in .

Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM) publishes articles online and in print that report substantial and original findings on tissue engineering, medical biomaterials, cells and stem cells for tissue repair, preclinical and clinical studies, and regenerative medicine. The criteria for acceptance of manuscripts are scientific excellence, significance, and interest for the general readership in the tissue engineering and regenerative medicine field. Feature Articles and Editorials are invited only by the Editors.

Overview

The award-winning WIREs (Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews) series combines some of the most powerful features of encyclopedic reference works and review journals in an innovative online format. They are designed to promote a cross-disciplinary research ethos while maintaining the highest scientific and presentational standards, but should be viewed first and foremost as evolving online databases of cutting-edge reviews.

eCM provides an interdisciplinary forum for publication of preclinical research in the musculoskeletal field (Trauma, Maxillofacial, Spine and Orthopaedics) and the cells and materials used in the replacement, repair or regeneration of these tissues.The clinical relevance of the work must be briefly mentioned within the abstract, and in more detail in the discussion.Poor abstracts which do not concisely cover the paper contents will not be sent for review. Incremental steps in research will not be entertained by eCM journal.Please CAREFULLY read the Instructions to Authors before submission to save early disappointment. It is highly recommended that a well prepared abstract is sent to the Editor-in-Chief before submission to see if the area or results would fit eCM journal.
