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.

《生物材料》是一本国际期刊，涵盖生物材料的科学和临床应用。生物材料现在被定义为一种经过工程改造的物质，这种物质可以单独使用或作为复杂系统的一部分使用，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。该期刊旨在为原创论文和权威评论和意见论文的发表提供同行评议的论坛，这些论文和评论涉及生物材料在临床实践中使用面临的最重要问题。该期刊的范围涵盖了广泛的物理、生物和化学科学，这些科学支撑着生物材料的设计及其所应用的临床学科。这些科学包括聚合物合成和特性、药物和基因载体设计、宿主反应的生物学、免疫学和毒理学以及纳米级的自组装。临床应用包括所有临床学科的医疗技术和再生医学疗法，以及依赖创新造影剂和传感剂的诊断系统。该期刊涉及癌症诊断和治疗、植入式设备、药物输送系统、基因载体、生物纳米技术和组织工程等领域。
