Sensors and Sensing Technologies for Circadian Rhythms

Dear Colleagues,

We are in a new era of widespread sensing technology use for circadian rhythms. This is realized through the everyday use of smartwatches that monitor not just activities but also physiological parameters to some degree, and also by integrated smartphone monitoring. The data collected have the potential to improve sleep quality, optimize performance and productivity, facilitate diagnoses for personalized medicine, and prevent diseases linked to circadian disruptions. We invite submissions that explore the possibility of integrating these novel datasets and designing sensors and sensing technologies. Potential topics include not only real-time monitoring but also the application of algorithms for data analysis and disruption prediction. Studies showcasing real-world applications, as well as contributions to research and clinical applications in circadian biology, are highly 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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Sensors 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 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.
