Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the past decade, biomarker research has experienced phenomenal growth powered by novel molecular readout (nano) technology in genomics, proteomics and metabolomics. The biological markers of disease are now enabling many new and innovative applications in the field of medicine, molecular biology and biotechnology. This special issue will focus on convergence of biomarkers and nanotechnology based molecular readout systems and clinical applications.
