Biosensors measure biological elements. Biosensing refers to the use of
analytical devices capable of converting a biological response into a
measurable signal, often an electrical one, to measure complex biological
phenomena.

Biosensing has the potential to play a pivotal role in healthcare
technologies, by providing superior diagnostic methods as well as more
advanced monitoring and therapeutic techniques. Apart from medical
diagnostics, biosensing also has wide applications in environmental
monitoring, food safety and industrial process control. There are a wide
range of biosensing technologies, including optical, electrochemical, and
immunological in a variety of contraptions such as bandaids, contact
lenses, and wearables. This special issue invites original research on
topics related to biosensing technologies and related areas such as novel
designs and ways of sensing, intelligent sensing and communication
approaches, as well as innovative analysis methods such as signal
processing, and deep learning approaches.

Relevant topics of this special issue include but are not limited to the
following:

Biosensors and Biosensing platforms
Biomedical sensors and novel ways of sensing
Implantable devices
Transformative biomedical sensors
Bioelectronics
Advanced biosensing technologies with artificial intelligence integration
Novel biosensing applications in areas such as agri-tech, health, security,
and food safety
Understanding signal interactions and measurement in biosensing applications
Bridging the gap between research and practice in biosensing technologies
Economic and social impact of biosensing technologies


*Submission Guidelines*
Submissions tackling any aspect of this field are welcomed, as long as the
connection to pervasive computing is clear and central to the paper. Review
or summary articles—for example, critical evaluations of the state of the
art, or an insightful analysis of established and upcoming technologies—may
be accepted if they demonstrate academic rigor and relevance.

Articles submitted to IEEE Pervasive Computing should not exceed 6,000
words, including all text, abstract, keywords, bibliography, biographies,
and table text. The word count must include 250 words for each table and
figure. References should be limited to at most 20 citations (40 for survey
papers). Authors are encouraged, but not required, to use a template for
submission (accepted articles will ultimately be typeset by magazine staff
for publication).

Please submit papers through the ScholarOne Manuscripts system, and be sure
to select the special issue name. Manuscripts should not be published or
currently submitted for publication elsewhere. Please submit only full
papers intended for review, not abstracts, to the ScholarOne Manuscripts
portal.
