Journal Title：Biomedical Microdevices

Biomedical Microdevices: BioMEMS and Biomedical Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary periodical devoted to all aspects of research in the medical diagnostic and therapeutic applications of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (BioMEMS) and nanotechnology for medicine and biology.

General subjects of interest include the design, characterization, testing, modeling and clinical validation of microfabricated systems, and their integration on-chip and in larger functional units. The specific interests of the Journal include systems for neural stimulation and recording, bioseparation technologies such as nanofilters and electrophoretic equipment, miniaturized analytic and DNA identification systems, biosensors, and micro/nanotechnologies for cell and tissue research, tissue engineering, cell transplantation, and the controlled release of drugs and biological molecules.

Contributions reporting on fundamental and applied investigations of the material science, biochemistry, and physics of biomedical microdevices and nanotechnology are encouraged. A non-exhaustive list of fields of interest includes: nanoparticle synthesis, characterization, and validation of therapeutic or imaging efficacy in animal models; biocompatibility; biochemical modification of microfabricated devices, with reference to non-specific protein adsorption, and the active immobilization and patterning of proteins on micro/nanofabricated surfaces; the dynamics of fluids in micro-and-nano-fabricated channels; the electromechanical and structural response of micro/nanofabricated systems; the interactions of microdevices with cells and tissues, including biocompatibility and biodegradation studies; variations in the characteristics of the systems as a function of the micro/nanofabrication parameters.

Biomedical Microdevices: BioMEMS and Biomedical Nanotechnology 是一本跨学科期刊，致力于研究微机电系统 (BioMEMS) 和纳米技术在医学和生物学中的医学诊断和治疗应用的各个方面。

感兴趣的一般主题包括微制造系统的设计、表征、测试、建模和临床验证，以及它们在芯片上和更大功能单元中的集成。该杂志的具体兴趣包括神经刺激和记录系统、生物分离技术（如纳米过滤器和电泳设备）、小型化分析和 DNA 识别系统、生物传感器以及用于细胞和组织研究、组织工程、细胞移植和药物和生物分子的控释。

鼓励对材料科学、生物化学和生物医学微型设备和纳米技术的物理的基础和应用研究进行报告。感兴趣的领域的非详尽列表包括：纳米粒子合成、表征和动物模型中治疗或成像功效的验证；生物相容性；微制造装置的生化修饰，参考非特异性蛋白质吸附，以及微/纳米制造表面上蛋白质的主动固定和图案化；微纳通道中的流体动力学；微/纳米加工系统的机电和结构响应；微型设备与细胞和组织的相互作用，包括生物相容性和生物降解研究；系统特性随微/纳米加工参数的变化而变化。

Biomedical Microdevices创刊于1998年，由SPRINGER出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖工程技术 - 工程：生物医学全领域，此刊是中等级别的SCI期刊，所以过审相对来讲不是特别难，但是该刊专业认可度不错，仍然是一本值得选择的SCI期刊 。平均审稿速度偏慢,4-8周，影响因子指数2.176，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
