BSN 2026 is calling for full papers in the format of 4 page technical papers. Accepted papers, following the review round, will be presented at the conference and published in IEEE Xplore. For these full papers, no additional pages will be accepted, meaning additional page fees are not considered or available. Within this 4 page limit, all sections must be included, including references. 4 page papers are required to follow the conference template format: (IEEE Conference template). All submissions must be written in English. BSN adopts a single blind review process, allowing authors to include their names and affiliations in the submission.
BSN 2026 theme is “From Lab to Life: Scaling Intelligent Sensors for Personalized Health Ecosystems.” As a flagship conference from the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (IEEE EMBS), the conference, located this year in Porto, Portugal, promises to be a major gathering of academia, industry, and healthcare leaders to discuss cross discipline and highly selected topics mainly, but not only, from Wearable Biomedical Sensors and Systems.
Highlights:
- Excellent papers will be invited for extension and rapid review at the IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology.
- There will also be awards for the best presentation, the best poster, and the best demo.
Topics of Interest included but are not limited to:
- Novel digital health solutions (i.e., sensors and algorithms) for diagnosis, disease progress tracking, and self management.
- Sensors and systems for digital health, wellness, and athletics.
- Conformable decoders: unintrusive, comfortable, self powered sensors and systems.
- Flexible, stretchable, and imperceptible electronics for sensors and systems.
- Contact less solutions for human sensing.
- Power optimization for implantable and wearable sensors and systems.
- Wearable robotics systems for digital healthcare.
- Signal processing, machine learning, deep learning, and decision support algorithms.
- Adaptive, personalized intervention systems by closing the loop between technologies and humans.
- Security, privacy, and trust in digital health technologies.
- Optimization and personalization for digital health technologies and outcomes.
- Human centered design for digital healthcare to address real world stakeholder needs.
- Emerging topics such as Agentic AI and LLMs for computational health.
Please note that although OpenReview will be used as the submission platform, the review process will remain confidential, and reviews and comments during evaluation will not be publicly disclosed online.
