Advances in Integrated Circuits and Systems for Implantable and Wearable Biomedical Sensors

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will focus on the latest innovations in integrated circuits (ICs) and system-level design for implantable and wearable biomedical sensors. As healthcare systems move toward continuous, personalized, and data-driven monitoring, the development of compact, low-power, and intelligent electronic solutions has become increasingly vital. Rapid progress in low-power electronics, wireless communication, and bio-interface technologies is enabling new generations of biomedical sensors that can seamlessly and safely interact with the human body. The integration of advanced circuits and systems now plays a central role in realizing next-generation healthcare solutions that are capable of long-term, real-time physiological monitoring and diagnostics.

This issue welcomes the submission of high-quality research and review papers addressing key challenges in ultra-low-power signal acquisition, on-chip machine learning, energy harvesting, and reliable wireless data transmission. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, analog and mixed-signal front-end design for bio-sensing, embedded ML/AI for near-sensor/in-sensor biomedical data processing, power management circuits for energy-constrained devices, and wireless power and data transfer techniques for implants, as well as flexible, stretchable, and biocompatible platforms for wearable applications. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of emerging IC and system technologies that are shaping the future of implantable and wearable biomedical sensing 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 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.
