Dear Friends and Colleagues
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we cordially invite you
to join us for the 5th European Biosensor Symposium to be held
the 26th-29th October 2025 in Tarragona, Spain.
Biosensors have started to revolutionize the way we manage
several aspects of our lives. They are at the forefront of
technical innovation driving breakthroughs across a wide range
of fields and industries. The need for rapid, accurate and
reliable detection instruments in the medical, food quality and
safety, agriculture and environmental domains has been the
driving forces that has expanded the global biosensor market at
an unprecedented rate in the last decades.

Improved or innovative (biological) recognition elements
combined with advanced microelectronic transducers or
nanomaterials have delivered a new generation of tools and
devices with enhanced features which have the potential to
impact all those fields in which real-time monitoring or
diagnosing are required. Enormous achievements in speed,
sensitivity, selectivity, precision, accuracy and mobility
have been reached. Far from coming to a halt, the future of
biosensors seems to be bright in view of the rapid
advancements in nanotechnology, materials science, innovative
fabrication techniques of micro(nano) electronic transducers
and microfluidics. In addition, point-of-care (PoC) devices,
multiplexed chips, medical imaging or wearable biosensors
generate massive information, which can be handled also thanks
to advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies.
This may open the door to expand knowledge in distinct
research areas but may also impact the healthcare industry. In
parallel, advanced microfluidic organ-on-chip (OoC) platforms
are envisaged as powerful tools for predicting toxicity or
designing personalized diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
The European Biosensor Symposium bi-annual conference has the
mission to highlight the advances and the relevance of
biosensors creating a forum of debate to promote and
strengthen scientific advances and collaborations and the
emergence of new research ideas. Born in 2017 in Potsdam,
Germany, and after 3 editions celebrated in Florence, Italy
(2019), on-line (2021) and in Aachen, Germany (2023), EBS will
travel to the south of Europe and be celebrated in Spain for
the first time.
Young and experienced leading experts in the field will get
around in this international event encompassing both
fundamental and applied research, offered through plenary,
keynote, invited talks and poster presentations that will
stimulate interdisciplinary discussions. This will take place
in Tarragona, a UNESCO World Heritage site with an enviable
scenario of Roman Empire symbols like an impressive
amphitheater or the charming old town full of medieval
architecture and narrow streets. Besides this unique blend of
Roman reminiscences, the city has a vibrant culture, an
excellent Mediterranean gastronomy and the beautiful sandy
beaches of Costa Daurada to offer to its visitors.
We are willing to count on your participation in the 5th
European Biosensor Symposium in October 2025 and to welcoming
you to Tarragona, Spain.
Yours sincerely,
Organization Committee
Prof. Dra. María Pilar Marco & Prof. Dr. Fred Lisdat
