Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomedical sensors transduce biological signals into electrical signals and enable us to diagnose, track, and treat various medical diseases. The electrical signals of biomedical sensors are detected and processed with specialized readout circuits in sensor systems. In recent years, biomedical sensing has attracted attention for both in vitro and in vivo applications, including samples from single biological cells to human organs. Biosensors lead to continuous data tracking and are significantly effective in precision medicine. Depending on the application, these sensors can be wireless, implantable, wearable, integrated, etc. Power consumption of these devices is especially important, since these devices are—in most cases—battery powered or have heating restrictions that limit power usage. The sensors can operate with or without external power requirement; however, the readout part typically has active power consumption and needs to be optimized to attain minimum power dissipation at maximum accuracy. This Special Issue aims to collect cutting-edge advancements in biomedical sensing applications with a focus on low-power features, which are highly demanded for wearable and implantable sensor systems.

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. Micromachines 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.
