Section Collection Information

Dear Colleagues,

The use of nanotechnology in disease diagnosis is referred to as nano diagnostics. This can include using nanoparticles for imaging, detection, and therapy, as well as developing nanodevices for diagnostic purposes. Gold nanoparticles and quantum dots, for example, can be programmed to target specific cells or tissues in the body, allowing for highly sensitive and specific detection of disease markers. Furthermore, nanodevices, such as lab-on-a-chip platforms, can be used for quick and low-cost diagnostic testing. Nano diagnostics is an active area of research that has the potential to significantly improve disease detection and treatment, especially from the perspective of personalized medicine and point-of-care devices. The development of specific, sensitive, accurate, rapid, low-cost, and simple-to-use diagnostic tools for early disease detection and prognosis could save a significant amount of time, effort, and individual suffering associated with treatment. The section welcomes efforts from researchers highlighting advancements in fabrication techniques, computation and simulation, a cutting-edge nanofluidic technology for basic research, and industrial and commercial developments. Original research papers as well as review articles are encouraged.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
