Focus Issue on the 18th International Meeting on Chemical Sensors (IMCS-18) – Volume Two

Volume two of this focus issue is a collection of papers accepted to the 2020 International Meeting on Chemical Sensors (IMCS) which was postponed. Although IMCS takes place every two years, the postponed 2020 meeting is scheduled (in a digital format) for May 30-June 3, 2021. IMCS was founded in Fukuoka, Japan, in 1983. Today it is the largest and most-renowned conference in the scientific area of chemical sensors. IMCS meetings provide an excellent opportunity to network with leaders in the field and with companies commercializing chemical sensors for environmental, medical, healthcare, industry, and food safety applications. Papers are being accepted covering topics related to the planned IMCS symposia, which include:

IMCS 01 – Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Chemometrics, and Sensor Arrays 

IMCS 02 – Chemical and Biosensors, Medical/Health, and Wearables

IMCS 03 – Electrochemical and Metal Oxide Sensors 

IMCS 04 – Sensors for Agricultural and Environmental Applications

IMCS 05 – Recent Advances and Future Directions in Chemical and Bio Sensor Technology and Networked Systems

IMCS 06 – MEMS/NEMS, FET Sensors, and Resonators

IMCS 07 – Microfluidic Devices and Sensors

IMCS 08 – Optical Sensors, Plasmonics, Chemiluminescent, and Electrochemiluminescent Sensors

IMCS 09 – Sensors for Breath Analysis, Biomimetic Taste, and Olfaction Sensing

IMCS 10 – Chemical and Biosensing Materials and Sensing Interface Design

IMCS 01-10 – IMCS Poster Collection

Reviews, critical reviews, and perspective papers welcomed.
