Biosensors | Invitation to Read Hot Papers on Wearable Biosensors Research

Over the past decades, wearable biosensors have demonstrated great potential for revolutionizing personalized healthcare and telemedicine. Advances in chemical sensing, flexible materials, and scalable manufacturing techniques allow wearable biosensors to detect key physiological indicators, such as temperature, vital signs, body motion, and molecular biomarkers.

We would like to take this opportunity to extend our appreciation to all of the researchers who have contributed to wearable biosensors. We would like to highlight multiple research projects in this field that are not just limited to the topics below.
