Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will gather selected high-quality contributions presented at the IEEE International Workshop on Measurements and Applications in Veterinary and Animal Sciences, focusing on the applications that emerging technologies in instrumentation, measurement and bioengineering have on veterinary medicine, animal and food sciences.
The aim of the Special Issue is to highlight innovative approaches that improve the monitoring, diagnosis and management of animal health, welfare and production systems. Contributions may address the development and application of sensors, diagnostic technologies, measurement systems and data acquisition methods designed for veterinary and animal science contexts. Particular interest will be given to studies exploring precision livestock farming technologies, biosensors for health monitoring, metrology-assisted processes in food production and analytical tools for biological and chemical measurements relevant to animal and veterinary sciences.
By bringing together researchers from different disciplines, this Special Issue aims to promote cross-disciplinary collaboration and showcase technological innovations that can support more efficient, sustainable and evidence-based animal production and veterinary practices.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Animals is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
