Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Early and accurate diagnosis are critical factors to improve patient prognosis. Microfluidic systems offer a range of tools that promises to complements traditional techniques used in diagnositcs. The small volumes required in microfluidic systems, combined with the predictable behavior of fluid dynamics at the microscale have the potential to signifcantly streamline and accelerate diagnostics tests while simultanesouly reducing the sample needed. This, in this special issue we invite the submission of manuscripts exploring microfluidic-based advances and new platforms to diagnose human disease, with special emphasis in cancer and infectious diseases. Manuscripts presenting new methodologies to improve disease diagnosis, providing cost-effective platforms for point-of-care diagnosis, or developing new diagnostiscs approaches are welcome.

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 2200 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.
