Virtual special issue
Participants are invited to submit manuscripts based on their presentations at the 6th International Conference on Bio-Sensing (BITE2019) for possible publication in Biosensors & Bioelectronics or Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research, with the intention of publishing in a Virtual Special Issue that is dedicated to the conference.
- Accepted papers will be published individually as soon as they are accepted in a regular journal volume;
- There will be footnotes included in accepted papers, indicating that they were presented at the 6th International Conference on Bio-Sensing;
- All accepted papers will be combined as a virtual special issue hosted on the ScienceDirect pages of Biosensors & Bioelectronics and Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research, retaining all citation details;
- A preface or editorial might accompany the virtual special issue.
Authors are suggested taking a special note of the scopes of these two journals before deciding to submit a paper to which journal. Biosensors & Bioelectronics has a much narrower scope than Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research and a very high rejection rate.
Please note that Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research is an open access journal: all articles will be immediately and permanently free for everyone to read and download. To provide open access, this journal has an open access fee (also known as an article publishing charge APC) which needs to be paid by the authors or on their behalf e.g. by their research funder or institution. For more information, please see Guide for Authors of this journal.
