Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electronics are inherently stiff and a distinct material mismatch to the human skin. The holy grail of wearable sensing is to produce electronics that are of similar material properties in terms of stiffness and flexibility to our human skin, while maintaining the functionalities to provide long-term sensing solutions.
With this motivation, it is our great pleasure to invite you to contribute an original research or review article to a Special Issue of Sensors on "Flexible Electronics for Wearable Sensing".
In this Special Issue, we hope to bring together contributions from leading experts in the field of soft, stretchable or flexible electronics, with an emphasis on a combination of materials, sensors, or applications for wearable solutions.
Potential topics include but not limited to:
- Soft / stretchable / flexible physical sensors (force, pressure, motion, temperature, etc.)
- Soft / stretchable / flexible chemical sensors (oxygen, carbon dioxide, pH, etc.)
- Soft / stretchable / flexible biosensors (glucose, lactate, DNA, etc.)
- Flexible / stretchable electronics for human-machine interface
- Flexible / stretchable substrates of high electrical conductivity
- Flexible / stretchable LEDS or OLEDS
- Organic circuits

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
