Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent years have witnessed significant progress in wearable biosensors, offering noninvasive, real-time access to critical biomarkers from body fluids such as sweat, interstitial fluid, and saliva. These platforms hold immense promises in personalized medicine, chronic disease management, fitness monitoring, and mental health evaluation. The integration of soft materials, wireless communication, and multi-modal detection strategies has further expanded their applicability in both research and commercial domains.
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue, which aims to highlight recent advances in the design, fabrication, and application of wearable biosensors. We are particularly interested in works that align with the journal’s scope on sensor development, analytical techniques, biomedical applications, and system integration. The objective is to gather at least 10 high-quality contributions. If this target is met, the Special Issue may also be published as a printed book.
This Special Issue aims to explore, but is not limited to, the following themes:
- Flexible materials and bio-interface engineering;
- Electrochemical and optical wearable biosensors;
- Biofluid-based biomarker detection;
- Signal processing and data interpretation from wearable devices;
- Integration with AI for health analytics;
- Validation studies and clinical translation of wearable biosensing systems.
In this Special Issue, both original research articles and comprehensive reviews are welcome.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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. Applied Sciences 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.
