Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wearable analytical technologies serve as a transformative alternative to clinical diagnostics that have attracted considerable attention since the medical care burden has been dramatically increased due to the aging global population and stressful modern lifestyles. To obtain diverse physiological and pathological information, these sensors can be worn through various ways, including glasses, contact lenses, face masks, dental braces, headsets, wristbands, smartwatches, bandages, patches, and textiles. The physical parameters and biochemical markers from different biofluids such as tears, saliva, breath, sweat, interstitial fluid, cerebrospinal fluid, semen, and urine can be detected in a noninvasive or minimally invasive manner. Continuous efforts in the exploration of robust, reliable, rapid, and efficient wearable sensors are highly desired to promote next-generation diagnostics and personalized medicine.
The Special Issue aims to publish a wide variety of topics that focus on the development of advanced responsive materials, the detection of biomarkers and physiological signals, and the construction of wearable and point-of-care analytical devices. We are delighted to invite submissions of research and review papers that help to advance the field of wearable biosensor technology and its building components, including, but not limited to, substrate materials, biomarker recognition, signal transducers, biofluid sampling, signal output, and readout.

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.
