We are now entering the third decade of the 21st Century, and, especially in the last years, the achievements made by scientists in the preclinical cell and gene therapy field have been exceptional, leading to major advancements. Frontiers has organized a series of Research Topics to highlight the latest scientific advancements to be at the forefront of science in different fields of research. This editorial initiative, led by Dr. Andrea Banfi, Specialty Chief Editor of the Preclinical Cell and Gene Therapy section, together with Dr. Elizabeth Balmayor, is focused on new insights, novel developments, current challenges, latest discoveries, recent advances, and future perspectives in the field.
The Research Topic solicits brief, forward-looking contributions from the editorial board members that describe the state of the art, outlining recent developments and major achieved accomplishments, future challenges, and how to address those challenges to move the field forward. Reviews, Mini-Reviews, Perspectives, Brief Research Reports, and Opinions summarizing the current state and future directions of the field are particularly welcome in this collection. This article collection will inspire, inform and provide direction and guidance to researchers in the field.
Please note that this article collection is open to primarily receive invited manuscripts from our editorial board members. However, should you be interested in proposing a spontaneous article that fits the scope of this project perfectly, please contact the editorial office first (bioengineering@frontiersin.org).
Keywords: cell therapy, gene therapy, tissue engineering, bioengineering, biotechnology
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
