Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wearable technologies and their seamless integration with 5.0 health infrastructure are contributing to the implementation of a patient-centered approach. Wearable technologies allow for personalized healthcare interventions, the early detection and management of diseases, and the monitoring of chronic conditions, enabling improved health outcomes and quality of life. In addition, the introduction of advanced machine learning technologies has increased the potential of personalized medicine by allowing the handling and processing the large amounts of data received from pervasive wearable sensors.
Starting from these considerations, this Special Issue requests contributions on the current state of the art in the field of wearable technologies for biomedical applications, including advancements in sensor technology, data processing and analytics, the integration into healthcare systems, disease management, and remote patient monitoring.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Design, manufacturing, and fabrication of advanced sensors for healthcare applications;
- AI-enabled based healthcare framework with wearable sensors;
- Wearable sensors with anomaly detection;
- Design, implementation, and test of novel sensing principles;
- Machine learning/deep learning techniques for real-time wearable sensor data analytics;
- Distributed and connected sensing using wearable sensors;
- Remote health monitoring with wearable sensors;
- Signal processing and data collection through wearable sensors;
- Algorithms and tools for sensing and disease prediction with advanced wearable sensors;
Medical data transmission, acquisition, and integration with wearable 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. 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.
