Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid advancement of molecular and genetic technologies has ushered in a transformative era for cancer diagnostics and therapy. This Special Issue, "Innovations in Molecular and Genetic Biosensors: Emerging Techniques and Applications in Cancer Detection and Therapy", aims to compile the latest research, innovations, and insights into the development and applications of molecular and genetic biosensors in the realm of cancer studies. These cutting-edge sensors have shown great promise in early detection, real-time monitoring, and targeted therapies, thereby revolutionizing the approaches to cancer care.
The Special Issue will focus on a broad range of topics including, but not limited to, nanotechnology-based sensors, optoelectronic devices, CRISPR-based biosensors, and novel imaging techniques specifically designed for cancer applications. It will also delve into the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms in biosensor technologies to improve the specificity and sensitivity of cancer detection.
By amalgamating interdisciplinary studies from bioengineering, oncology, genetics, and data science, this Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state and future prospects of biosensor technologies in cancer management. We invite contributions from researchers and practitioners to share their findings, methodologies, and perspectives, thus enriching the scientific discourse and propelling the field forward.
