Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advances in biosensor/sensor technology are transforming healthcare by enabling continuous, real-time, and non-invasive or minimally invasive monitoring of physiological and biochemical signals. From point of care devices, wearable patches, and implantable micro-devices to touch-based interfaces for health monitoring, these systems are driving the next generation of precision health. Furthermore, emerging platforms integrate therapeutic actuation capabilities, such as drug delivery, electrical stimulation, or mechanical response, creating closed-loop systems that can sense, analyze, and respond to individual needs.
This Special Issue will focus on developments in the emerging space of precision health, highlighting various recent developments in device design, sensing modalities, data analytics, and clinical applications, aiming to bridge the gap between engineering advances and real-world healthcare impacts.
We welcome original research articles, reviews, short communications, and clinical or translational studies that advance the field of health-focused sensing technologies. Submissions may address novel materials, device architectures, sensing mechanisms, analytical algorithms, integration with telemedicine and IoMT platforms, or validation in laboratory, preclinical, or clinical settings. Studies should emphasize innovation, scalability, and the potential to improve patient outcomes in personalized, preventive, and precision medicine.

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.
