Feature Papers in Wearables 2024

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the Wearables Section is now compiling a collection of papers submitted exclusively by the Editorial Board Members (EBMs) of our Section and outstanding scholars in this research field. The Special Issue engages in topics such as emerging wearable systems with integrated sensors (motion, ECG, HRV, GSR, blood pressure, biochemical sensors, and others); actuators (drug delivery, electrical stimulus, thermal actuators, and phototherapy); and data analytics engines for addressing key chronic medical conditions, diseases, health diagnostics, stress (mental and physical), wellness, and fitness applications.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to publish a set of papers that typify the very best insightful and influential original articles or reviews in which our Section’s EBMs and outstanding scholars discuss key topics in the field. We expect these papers to be widely read and highly influential within the field. All papers in this Special Issue will be published in a printed book edition after the deadline and will be extensively promoted.

Taking this opportunity, we would also like to call on more excellent scholars to join the Wearables Section to contribute to the development of this field.

Dr. Roozbeh Ghaffari
Guest Editor
