Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Early monitoring of human health status is critical for improving treatment outcomes and has, therefore, garnered increasing attention from both academia and industry. To provide researchers and readers with timely insights into this rapidly advancing field, this Special Issue focuses on recent progress in wearable health-monitoring devices. Such devices enable continuous, minimally or non-invasive, and user-friendly assessment of physiological and pathological states, holding great promise for personalized healthcare and disease prevention.
The scope of this Special Issue encompasses a wide spectrum of wearable monitoring approaches, including, but not limited to, the following: biochemical detection of disease biomarkers, intelligent disease diagnosis, electrophysiological signal recording, blood-pressure and cardiovascular monitoring, motion and activity tracking, as well as self-powered wearable systems that integrate energy harvesting with sensing and processing functions. We encourage submissions that report innovative device architectures, novel materials and fabrication methods, system integration, data analytics, intelligent algorithms, and practical demonstrations of reliable long-term monitoring. Both original research articles and comprehensive reviews that highlight emerging concepts and future directions are welcome.

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. Biosensors 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 2200 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.
