Plenary and keynote talks from renowned speakers
Our invited prestigious speakers lead a topical program supplemented by selected contributed oral presentations and poster sessions for which abstracts are invited
Biosensors 2027
37th Anniversary World Congress on Biosensors
18-20 May 2027 | Kyoto, Japan
Join us for Biosensors 2027
This premier event for the biosensor community and the largest in the field will celebrate its 37th anniversary with another excellent line-up of plenary speakers, high-quality contributed oral talks and large poster sessions.
For more than 35 years, this meeting has catalysed interactions to further this ever-expanding area. Biosensors harness the exquisite recognition capabilities of biological systems and combine them with physicochemical transducers to deliver simple, easy to use diagnostic systems for an ever-expanding range of applications to improve health, wellbeing, and the environment.
The program features daily plenary presentations followed by parallel sessions comprising a rigorously refereed selection of submitted papers and highly interactive poster sessions. Selected high quality selected oral contributions will be included as extended keynote presentations.
Topics will include:
Bioelectronics (including biocomputing, bio-fuel and photovoltaic cells, and electronic noses)
Commercial biosensors, manufacturing and markets
Nucleic acid-based sensors and aptasensors
Enzyme-based biosensors
Immunosensors
Lab-on-a-chip, multiplexed and multimodal sensors
Microfluidics and immobilisation technology
Wearable biosensors and personal mobile health
Nanobiosensors, nanomaterials & nanoanalytical systems
Natural & synthetic receptors (including MIPs)
Organism-, whole cell- and organ-based biosensors
Printed biosensors and microfabrication
Proteomics, single-cell analysis and cancer-cell detection
Signal transduction technology
Single molecule detection
Theranostics, implantable, ingestible and resorbable sensors
CRISPR-based biosensors

Supporting publications
Biosensors & Bioelectronics is the principal international journal devoted to research, design, development and application of biosensors and bioelectronics. It is an interdisciplinary journal serving professionals with an interest in the exploitation of biological materials and designs in novel diagnostic and electronic devices including sensors, DNA chips, electronic noses, lab-on-a-chip and μ-TAS.
Biosensors and Bioelectronics: X is the open access mirror journal of Biosensors and Bioelectronics.
Biosensors and Bioelectronics: X offers authors with high-quality research who want to publish in a gold open access journal the opportunity to make their work immediately, permanently, and freely accessible.
Sensing and Bio-Sensing Research is an open access journal devoted to research, design development and application of all bio-sensing and sensing technologies. The editors will accept reviews and papers of obvious relevance, which describe important new concepts, underpin understanding of the above areas of interest or provide important insights into the practical application, manufacture and commercialisation of bio-sensing and sensing technologies.
Sensors and Actuators Reports is a peer-reviewed open access journal launched out from the Sensors and Actuators journal family. Sensors and Actuators Reports is dedicated to publishing new and original works in the field of all type of sensors and actuators, including bio-, chemical-, physical-, and nano- sensors and actuators, which demonstrates significant progress beyond the current state of the art. The journal regularly publishes original research papers, reviews, and short communications.
