Microelectrode Array for Biomedical Applications

Dear colleagues,

For half a century, many kinds of MEA (micro-electrode array) have been developed, including the plane MEA on glass, the Utah electrode, the Michigan electrode, and electrode arrays on silicon. Using different MEAs, different studies have been carried out, including research on the biological performance of artificial cultured neuronal networks and brain slices, the combined study of cell electrophysiological function and morphology, the study of nerve regeneration, the study of prominent plasticity, the study of retina, the study of pacing and electrical excitation conduction characteristics of myocardial cells, acute heart slices, or isolated hearts, and so on. For different studies, different devices, instruments, and systems have been developed. In this Special Issue, all aspects related to MEAs for biomedical applications will be discussed.

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. Biosensors is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
