Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, Future Nanoparticles: Focus on Sensors and Bio-Applications, highlights cutting-edge research at the intersection of nanoparticle biomedical diagnostics with a central focus on challenging diseases biomarkers like inflammatory diseases, pain disease, cancer, and cardiovascular, respiratory, and neurodegenerative diseases by using various theragnostic tools. Nanoparticles represent a transformative tool in sensor technology, offering unprecedented sensitivity, specificity, and versatility in detecting environmental contaminants and biomolecules. This collection of articles delves into novel polymer, metal nanoparticle-based synthesis. Moreover, the issue addresses critical challenges with their future perspectives into healthcare solutions. By showcasing cutting-edge research and innovative applications, this Special Issue aims to inspire future developments in nanoparticle-enabled biosensors, paving the way for impactful contributions to healthcare diagnostics. This Special Issue aims to foster dialogue across disciplines and accelerate translational research toward clinical implementation, ultimately contributing to timely diagnosis and treatment improved quality of life for individuals in oncology, stem cell research, vascular imaging, neuroimaging, imaging of lung perfusion, in vivo tracking and quantification of inhaled aerosols, imaging of the heart, on-the-spot biopsies, etc.

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. Nanomaterials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
