Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in micro and nano engineering have enabled the development of high-performance and reliable systems and devices for various applications in the health and biological domains. These micro/nano systems are relied on in emerging technologies such as M/NEMS, spintronics or novel optical approaches to provide high performances in terms of sensitivity, measurement range and limit of detection for various applications such as point-of-care testing, early diagnosis, drug delivery systems, and DNA sequencing.
This Special Issue focuses on new approaches in the area of micro/nano systems and devices (such as M/NEMS) for biomedical or biological applications. Submissions should span all aspects of the development and application of these systems. Recent advancements in micro and nano engineering and materials have facilitated the creation of high-performance systems and devices catering to diverse applications in the health and biological domains. These micro/nano systems leverage emerging technologies such as M/NEMS, spintronics, or innovative optical approaches to deliver superior performance in terms of sensitivity, measurement range, and limit of detection. This progress is particularly significant for applications such as point-of-care testing, early diagnosis for several disease such as cancer or Alzheimer’s, drug delivery systems, and DNA sequencing.
This Special Issue is dedicated to exploring novel approaches, devices, and systems for biomedical or biological applications on a micro- and nanoscale. This Special Issue will showcase a range of manuscript submissions to cover a broad spectrum of aspects related to the development and application of these cutting-edge systems. In an era marked by a burgeoning demand for precise and efficient solutions in healthcare and biology, the contributions to this Special Issue are expected to provide valuable insights into the evolving landscape of micro and nano technologies. By delving into the intricacies of these advanced systems, researchers aim to pave the way for groundbreaking innovations that hold immense potential for revolutionizing diagnostic tools, therapeutic interventions, and overall healthcare practices.
