Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues:
Traditional biosensors are usually constructed on bulky and rigid electrode interfaces. In the era of big health, big data, and artificial intelligence, the question of how to detect biometric information on skin anytime anywhere has become highly important. In this context, soft electronic-skin based biosensors may offer unprecedented benefits for their seamless integration with soft and curvilinear biological systems, enabling transformational wearable and implantable biodiagnostics. The tissue moduli-matching biosensors may conformally integrate with soft biological organs for real-time monitoring a range of biological markers such as glucose, lactate, pH and cationic ions in a wireless manner. In particular, wearable biosensing represents a hot topic with an accumulated >300 research publications in the last five years. Therefore, we are motivated to discuss the recent development and improvement of these sensors.

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.
