Dear Colleagues,

It is a great pleasure to announce the opening of a Section Collection dedicated to Synthesis, interfaces and nanostructures in Nano and Medical Materials (NMM). This section specifically deals with the physical and chemical phenomena that are typical of materials showing properties where surfaces and interfaces play a significant role, especially at the nanoscale and oriented to medical applications. The most relevant applications of these systems are found in the interdisciplinary fields of chemical catalysis, electrochemistry, energy storage and biosensing, functionalization of nanostructures, drug delivery and nanomedicine, wherein the role of the interface between two different phases plays a critical role in controlling the kinetics of the process. In particular, the ability to control processes down to the nanoscale is of paramount importance for improving their efficiencies and the ultimate applications into real world devices. The Section also deals with innovative synthesis protocols for the fabrication of nanostructures, resulting in a synergistic interplay between their size and the functional properties. The contributions can also present in-depth insights into theoretical aspects and/or can propose suitable integration procedures of the nanostructures into complete devices. Both reviews and original papers are welcomed for submission.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
