Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to participate in this Special Issue to explore data related to multimodal electrophysiology of clinical interest. Electrophysiology constitutes the measurement of ionic flux, which can indicate whether a cell or tissue is healthy or sick. This approach is widely used and applied in cardiology (most publications referring to electrophysiology worldwide come from cardiology studies or diagnosis). However, despite its high precision and speed in diagnosis, this technique is not widely explored in the clinic to aid in disease diagnosis and drug development innovation, or for other fields. Thus, recognizing that ionic balance is pivotal for basic cellular activities such as secretion, key enzyme activities, cell-cycle control, and neurotransmission, this Special Issue focuses on, but is not restricted to, clinical electrophysiology as an approach to investigate signal transduction pathways involved in central nervous system diseases. Furthermore, research using artificial intelligence is encouraged, as this represents a rich array of tools and techniques that span multimodal analyses to high-dimensional data, in order to connect basic science data to clinical cases.

The aim of this Special Issue is to take advantage of this distinguished opportunity to explore precise molecular targets for diagnosis strategies (cardiology, central nervous system diseases) and to coordinate the development of drugs for specific pathologies by focusing on the clinical electrophysiology platform.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: cardiology and central nervous system diseases.

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. 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.
