Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomedical or Biological Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (BioMEMS) have increasingly pervaded various fields, prominently in diagnostics, analytics, therapeutics, and tissue engineering. Originally adapted from the integrated circuit industry, the fabrication techniques for MEMS have evolved significantly for bioMEMS applications. This evolution reflects a deepening understanding of microfluidic dynamics and the surface properties of materials. While bioMEMS might lack traditional electrical and mechanical components, they encompass a broader scope of integrating diverse functionalities on a single micro- or nano-scale chip. BioMEMS are often synonymous with Lab-on-a-Chip (LoC) and micro total analysis systems (µTAS).
This Special Issue, titled “Advanced BioMEMS and Their Applications”, aims to provide a timely and extensive overview of cutting-edge techniques currently under development in global research labs, with a focus on—but not limited to—diagnostics, analytics, therapeutics, and tissue engineering. We welcome submissions of research papers, short communications, and review articles. Authors considering a review should discuss their proposal with the guest editor prior to submission.
Prof. Dr. Seokheun Choi
Guest Editor
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.
