Special Session

Bio-med Applications and Medical Devices

Bio-med research assists in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. Along with the improved treatment of existing health conditions, bio-med applications are used to add prognostic and prophylactic measures and discover new therapies using innovative medical devices. Precise surface functionalization is a foundation for the ground-breaking biomedical discovery using a diverse range of chemically synthesized nanomaterials and bio-nanomaterials, including the use of aptamers, antibodies, tumoral biomarkers, carbohydrates, ssDNA, siRNA, peptides on the biosensors, culminating in advanced biomedical devices. The biosensing technology also includes nanomaterials-based (0D, 1D, 2D, 3D nanomaterials, synthetic polymers, dendrimers, liposomes, micelle, PEGs, fluorescent dyes, drugs), paper-based (lateral flow assay, hybrid electrochemical/ lateral flow assay, optical readout), printing technology-based (inkjet printing, screen printing, graphene transfer electrodes, field-effect transistor-based biosensors, electrochemical readouts), and fully integrated Point-of-Care devices (smartphone-based, wearables, wireless readouts) for the bio-med diagnosis which are essential for wellness measurement in healthcare applications.

Currently, non-invasive or minimally invasive Point-of-Care biomedical devices are trending for advancement in biomedical sensing. The molecular next-generation digital biomarkers derived from body fluids can be collected noninvasively or minimally invasively and analyzed independently in specialized laboratories or at home. The significant advantage of these innovative biomedical devices is their ability to generate continuous or non-continuous molecular information about health and disease as per the needs of the patients. The words "continuous" and "early detection" have lately gained popularity as digital health tools have become more widely available. The Internet of Things (IoT) provides an additional supportive platform to add home-based, remote diagnosis, long-distance, easily accessible, rapid yet simplified healthcare features to biosensing medical devices. IoT enhances connectivity between a medical practitioner and their patient.

With a special session, international researchers have been invited to present their latest findings, developments, and applications in bio-med sensing Point-of-Care technology covering a wide range of healthcare applications. A special session on Bio-med Applications and Medical Devices will cover a presentation and poster sessions. All conference papers will be peer-reviewed based on a full-length manuscript, and the acceptance will be based on quality, originality, and relevance.

Dr. Sumedha Nitin Prabhu received her B.Sc. and M.Sc. from the University of Mumbai, Mumbai, India, in 2011 and 2013, respectively. She obtained a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia, in 2022. Her research interests include smart healthcare sensing systems, Point-of-Care devices, the Internet of Things, and embedded systems. She is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the College of Engineering & Applied Science at the University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, USA. Previously, she worked as a Senior Research Assistant in the School of Health Sciences at the University of Newcastle, Newcastle, Australia, where her work focused on how skin color demonstrates an individual's health status. She has published in high-impact factor journals, including IEEE Sensors, Wiley’s Medical Devices and Sensors, etc. Sumedha has published multiple book chapters, presented her work at many international IEEE conferences, and demonstrated her research work during international poster competitions. Sumedha has received two People's Choice Awards in 3 Minute Thesis and a Silver Award from the Early Career Women in STEM Paper & Grant Writing Association during her PhD candidature. She was awarded several prizes, multiple inter-university grants, and an Ohio state competitive grant for her research work. She also won second prize for Best PhD thesis 2021 from IEEE Sensors Council, NSW, Australia.
