Both graphene and bioelectronics are distinctly new and rapidly expanding fields of applied science. Graphene’s progression from pure nanoelectronics and fundamental science related material, into an application-related material, has occurred over unprecedented time frames, with many applications nearing market readiness. In this symposium, we will cover the consolidation of these two impactful scientific fields with the core thesis on the use of graphene as a springboard technology for the production of new bioelectronics forms and functions. Symposium content will include, but not limited to, the application of graphene as an active and passive material for neuroelectronic interfaces, production and operation of novel biosensors and bioelectronics architectures, development of wearable devices, and future perspectives of 2D material-based bioelectronics toward device ready technologies. The symposium will also include contributions addressing the fundamental principles of graphene’s interaction with biological matter and the practical advantages of it. Present trends in the biocompatibility and cytotoxicity of graphene and related materials will be explored, through formal presentations and discursive forums. This symposium will provide a uniquely comprehensive experimental overview of graphene’ and related 2D materials used for diverse bioelectronic, healthcare, neuroscience, and biosensing applications. The symposium will provide a portal to attendees on the present state-of-the-art in research on graphene-based devices, including the production, operation, and integration of 2D material based transistors, electrode arrays, optical biosensors, or in vivo probes. The symposium will consider and endorse contributions of works that utilize novel materials beyond graphene , including the emerging family of TMDs and related 2D materials (MoS2, MoSe2, hBN, WS2, WSe2, PtSe2, PtTe2, PtS2, etc.) and their heterostructures for bioelectronic applications. This timely symposium will disseminate the findings of this in the vogue research field to a broad audience. It will enable and stimulate the wider academic community to explore the development of 2D-material based bioelectronics towards supporting future on-body, real-time health care monitoring in times of urgently required growth in remote, user-specific healthcare monitoring of the elderly and vulnerable groups.
