✦ Synopsis
Several months ago, the Editor of Macromolecular Bioscience -Dr. Mara Staffilani -asked me to propose a theme for a special issue generally devoted to some medical applications of macromolecules. Although very large, I personally found this theme fascinating. We, therefore, decided to focus on macromolecular biomaterials that interface with cells. In fact, in my humble opinion, this topic truly highlights one of the main issues
