Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

The 2025 IEEE 7th Eurasia Conference on Biomedical Engineering, Healthcare and Sustainability (IEEE ECBIOS 2025) will be held in Kaohsiung, Taiwan on October 24–October 26, 2025, and it will provide a unified communication platform for researchers in the topics of biomedical engineering, healthcare, and sustainability. Recently, healthcare is undergoing a sector-wide transformation thanks to advances in computing, networking technologies, big data, and artificial intelligence. Healthcare is not only changing from reactive and hospital-centered to preventive and personalized care but is also changing from disease-focused to well-being-centered. Healthcare systems, as well as fundamental medicine research, are becoming smarter and more accessible in biomedical engineering. Furthermore, with cutting-edge sensors and computer technologies, healthcare delivery could also yield better efficiency, higher quality, and lower cost. However, these innovations often do not incorporate sustainability, health, and happiness for all people. Science and technology should be complemented by arts, humanities, social sciences, and indigenous knowledge and wisdom in order to increase the accessibility of the benefits for those in need across all regions and classes of people. We need an ethically aligned and driven healthcare system integrated with sustainability. This topic, “Biomedical Engineering, Healthcare and Sustainability, 2nd Edition”, includes four journals, Bioengineering, Healthcare, ASI, and C, to publish excellent papers in related fields. It enables interdisciplinary collaboration of science and engineering technologists in the academic and industrial fields, as well as networking internationally.

Topics of interest include the following:

  • Smart healthcare system analysis and design.
  • Computer and human–machine interactions of healthcare system.
  • Application of IoT (Internet of Things) in healthcare system.
  • Big data and artificial intelligence-enabled healthcare systems.
  • Health-related aspects of sustainability.
  • Environmental education and public health.
  • Environmental engineering and biotechnology, rehabilitation medicine, and physiotherapy.

Attention and brain focus are essential in human activities that require learning. In higher education, a popular means of acquiring knowledge and information is through serious games. The need for integrating digital learning tools, including serious games, into university curricula has been demonstrated by the students’ preferences that are oriented more towards engaging and interactive alternatives than traditional education. This study examines real-time attention measurement in serious games using wearable brain–computer interfaces (BCIs). By capturing electroencephalography (EEG) signals non-invasively, the system continuously monitors players’ cognitive states to assess attention levels during gameplay. The novel approach proposes adaptive attention measurements to investigate the ability to maintain attention during cognitive tasks of different durations and intensities, using a single-channel EEG system—NeuroSky Mindwave Mobile 2. The measures have been achieved on ten volunteer master’s students in Computer Science. Attention levels during short and intense tasks were compared with those recorded during moderate and long-term activities like watching an educational lecture. The aim was to highlight differences in mental concentration and consistency depending on the type of cognitive task. The experiment was designed following a unique protocol applied to all ten students. Data were acquired using the NeuroExperimenter software 6.6, and analytics were performed in RStudio Desktop for Windows 11. Data is available at request for further investigations and analytics. Experimental results demonstrate that wearable BCIs can reliably detect attention fluctuations and that integrating this neuroadaptive feedback significantly enhances player focus and immersion. Thus, integrating real-time cognitive monitoring in serious game design is an efficient method to optimize cognitive load and create personalized, engaging, and effective learning or training experiences. Beta and attention brain waves, associated with concentration and mental processing, had higher values during the gameplay phase than in the lecture phase. At the same time, there are significant differences between participants—some react better to reading, while others react better to interactive games. The outcomes of this study contribute to the design of personalized learning experiences by customizing learning paths. Integrating NeuroSky or similar EEG tools can be a significant step toward more data-driven, learner-aware environments when designing or evaluating educational games. Full article

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different coronal restoration methods on stresses in immature central incisors with regenerative endodontic treatment and excessive loss of coronal structure. Methods: A three-dimensional (3D) Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model of a maxillary central incisor treated with a 3 mm MTA coronal plug after regenerative endodontic treatment was created. Six different models were simulated: (1) intact immature tooth (control), (2) direct composite resin build-up, (3) fibre-reinforced composite build-up, (4) hybrid ceramic endocrown, (5) LiSi ceramic endocrown, and (6) endocore and ceramic crown restoration. Analyses were performed with SolidWorks/CosmosWorks, and a 150 N load was applied at a 135° angle. Results: Maximum tensile stresses were concentrated in the cervical region (4.577 MPa). Direct composite and fibre-reinforced restorations showed high stress in root dentin (3.891 and 3.841 MPa, respectively). The endocore/ceramic crown restoration (1.578 MPa) provided the closest stress distribution to the natural tooth (1.322 MPa). Conclusions: The biomechanical performance of the restoration–tooth complex depends on both the restorative material and the restoration design. In immature teeth undergoing regenerative endodontic treatment, the most biomechanically favourable restoration option was an endocore/ceramic crown. Full article
