n ON THE COVER
The global wearable biosensors market is a rapidly
expanding industry with increasingly growing potential
for applications in healthcare and technological
advances. With potential in remote patient monitoring,
diagnosis and detection of disease, biosensors
and wearable devices are gaining substantial interest
due to their opportunities to offer continuous and reliable
physiological information allowing for better support
of patient needs. With that in mind, SMi - in
partnership with Medical Design Briefs - is proud to present the
Designing Biosensors for Medical Wearables Conference. To see the lineup
of presentations, through which you will gain insight into on-body
devices for monitoring and remote diagnostics and much more, read the
show preview on page 28.
