Call for Papers: Special Issues on Single Cell Analysis
More and more evidence has shown that cell populations are not homogeneous, but rather heterogeneous, even within very small cell populations. Bulk measurements based on the homogenized cell population do not account for the critical changes occurring in individual cells and are sometimes misleading. Cellular heterogeneity characteristics may be the key to address previously unsolved questions in disease development and progression. Therefore, it is crucial to develop new single cell analysis techniques, including spectroscopy, imaging, sensing, manipulating, and sorting.
This special issue aims to highlight recent progress in the development of single cell optical analysis techniques and their applications in biological discovery, disease diagnosis and treatment. This special issue calls for the experts in the field of single cell optical technologies and their biomedical applications to discuss the most recent breakthroughs and the potential impacts in related research fields. Original research papers and review articles are both welcome. Manuscripts will be internationally peer-reviewed. Topics we specifically seek to cover but are not limited to the following:
Advanced single cell spectroscopy technology
Advanced single cell imaging technology
Advanced flow cytometry technology
Advanced single cell sorting technology
Advanced single cell manipulation technology
Biomedical applications of single cell optical technologies
