Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The elevating accessibility of biomedical data from biobanks, medical imaging, electronic health records, and wearable biosensors have prepared the ground for multi-modal big data analyses and the development of sophisticated AI solutions that can capture the complexity of human diseases and hence facilitate the clinical decision-making processes toward personalized medicine. Aging is a universal, gradual, and irreversible process that every human encounters; examples of aging-associated diseases cover, but are not limited to, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic diseases, musculoskeletal diseases, sarcopenia, cancers, and immune system diseases. With the rapidly growing aging population worldwide, promoting healthy aging is in pressing demand. To this end, there is a huge potential for us to leverage global solidarity to develop advanced AI solutions for healthy aging. This Special Issue on “Applications of AI in Biomedical Engineering for Healthy Ageing” aims to collect reviews, basic research, and clinical/technical studies that employ AI in biomedical engineering to resolve existing challenges towards healthy aging.

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. Bioengineering 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.
