Abstract
Advanced biosensors for diagnostic and clinical applications will require capabilities such as real-time detection or monitoring of physiological changes in vivo in addition to being light weight, small size, highly sensitive, selective, have ease in signal transmission, and stable. The fabrication of a high-performance biosensor can be realized by the development of bioprinting technology. Bioprinting enables high throughput, digital control, and accurate delivery of target material to the specific locations. Also, the sophisticated sensors fabricated by advanced science and technology, including nanosensors, wearable sensors, implantable sensors, and wireless sensors, have opened huge possibilities in understanding phenomena that occur in the body, and can be widely used for translational research. In this chapter, we will review various cutting-edge sensor technologies and bioprinting from the viewpoint of their potential application to biomedical engineering and therapeutics.
