Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are proud to announce the launch of a new Special Issue titled ‘Women's Special Issue Series: Applied Biochemistry’, welcoming women-led contributions in a variety of fields, from synthetic biology, glycan science, enzyme engineering, nucleic acid-based technology, antibody engineering, and vaccine development to pharmaceutical chemistry, antioxidants, and plant bioactive compounds.
This Special Issue is part of the MDPI journal initiative to promote and support the contributions of women in research. Women scientists are leading the way across diverse areas of science, highlighting healthcare and plant science, in which women dominate. We are inspired by outstanding biochemists who have changed the face of science and the fate of humankind—women such as Frances Arnold, who engineered enzymes by directed evolution, Tu YouYou, who isolated and used artemisin to cure drug-resistant malaria, and Özlem Türeci, who developed the first m-RNA vaccine, to name only a few. Now, we invite our fellow women scientists to present their own discoveries on topics across all areas of applied biochemistry.
For this Special Issue, we welcome all research led by women scientists, where men scientists may offer support for the initiative as co-authors. Both original research articles and comprehensive review papers are welcome.

Women’s Special Issue Series
This Special Issue is part of Applied Biosciences's Women’s Special Issue Series, hosted by women editors for women researchers. The Series advocates the advancement of women in science. We invite contributions to the Special Issue whose lead authors identify as women. The submission of articles with all-women authorship is especially encouraged. However, we do welcome articles from all authors, irrespective of gender.
