This journal publishes research on the development and application of novel biotechnological strategies for therapeutic and industrial purposes. Articles focus on the engineering of enzymes and biomaterials, the development of drug delivery systems using nanoparticles and other nanostructures, and the investigation of natural products and microbial strains for medicinal and bioremediation applications. The scope also includes the use of advanced computational and in vitro/in vivo models for evaluating therapeutic efficacy and understanding disease mechanisms, as well as the application of gene editing technologies and bio-imaging reporters.
