Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As technology continues to advance, wearables offer unprecedented opportunities for the continuous, real-time monitoring of neurocognitive, behavioral and social-affective impairments. From tracking physiological markers of neurological and psychopathological pictures to analyzing behavioral patterns connoting functional/dysfunctional life habits, wearable applications have outlined a constantly evolving landscape. While the potential of such applications for remote monitoring and management of chronic patients presenting non-communicable diseases is more established, theoretical foundations, methodological approaches and emerging trends shaping the integration of wearables in the comprehensive understanding and targeted management of neuropsychological and neuropsychiatric conditions still present open questions.
This Special Issue of Brain Sciences aims to provide an update on recent advances in the application of wearable technologies for complementing assessment, empowerment and rehabilitation of cognitive, affective and behavioral dysfunctions in neuropsychological or neuropsychiatric disorders. Moreover, it aims to constitute a collection of studies detailing the state of the art of R&D in such frontier territory, at the intersection of computer science, neuroengineering and neuroscience.
Authors are invited to submit cutting-edge perspective papers, research papers and reviews that address the above-noted topics.
