Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Neurological diseases of various etiologies like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, epilepsy, stroke, and neuromuscular diseases share fundamental clinical care challenges: the need for earlier diagnosis, more effective and personalized treatments, and reliable long-term monitoring tools.
On the therapeutic side, disease-modifying therapies continue to advance across conditions, and both invasive and non-invasive neuromodulation approaches (e.g., deep brain stimulation, transcranial magnetic/electrical stimulation) show growing promise both as stand-alone and adjunct interventions. Concurrently, digital technologies, such as wearable sensors, AI-assisted neuroimaging, digital cognitive and motor assessments, and patient-reported outcomes, are transforming how we diagnose and monitor neurological disease, with the potential to replace conventional clinical trial endpoints.
This Special Issue invites submissions on novel treatment strategies, as well as biomarkers and digital tools that advance the diagnosis, monitoring, or clinical trial methodology across the spectrum of neurological diseases. Reviews are accepted, although original research studies are particularly encouraged.
Sincerely,
Dr. Michelangelo Dini
Dr. Letizia Leocani

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2600 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.
