《生物材料》是一本涉及生物材料科学和临床应用的国际期刊。生物材料现在被定义为一种被设计成单独或作为复杂系统一部分的形式的物质，通过控制与生物系统组成部分的相互作用来指导任何治疗或诊断程序的过程。该杂志的目的是提供一个同行评审的论坛，以发表原始论文和权威的评论和意见论文，处理临床实践中使用生物材料面临的最重要问题。该杂志的范围涵盖了广泛的物理、生物和化学科学，这些科学为生物材料的设计和使用它们的临床学科提供了基础。这些科学包括聚合物合成和表征、药物和基因载体设计、宿主反应生物学、免疫学和毒理学以及纳米级的自组装。临床应用包括医疗技术和再生医学在所有临床学科的治疗，以及对创新的造影剂和传感剂作出反应的诊断系统。该杂志与癌症诊断和治疗、植入式装置、药物输送系统、基因载体、生物纳米技术和组织工程等领域有关

Biomaterials is an international journal covering the science and clinical application of biomaterials. A biomaterial is now defined as a substance that has been engineered to take a form which, alone or as part of a complex system, is used to direct, by control of interactions with components of living systems, the course of any therapeutic or diagnostic procedure. It is the aim of the journal to provide a peer-reviewed forum for the publication of original papers and authoritative review and opinion papers dealing with the most important issues facing the use of biomaterials in clinical practice. The scope of the journal covers the wide range of physical, biological and chemical sciences that underpin the design of biomaterials and the clinical disciplines in which they are used. These sciences include polymer synthesis and characterization, drug and gene vector design, the biology of the host response, immunology and toxicology and self assembly at the nanoscale. Clinical applications include the therapies of medical technology and regenerative medicine in all clinical disciplines, and diagnostic systems that reply on innovative contrast and sensing agents. The journal is relevant to areas such as cancer diagnosis and therapy, implantable devices, drug delivery systems, gene vectors, bionanotechnology and tissue engineering.
