Elsevier is delighted to announce that two titles have been named Subject Category Winners in the 2020 PROSE Awards, sponsored by the Association of American Publishers (AAP). Chemical, Gas, and Biosensors for Internet of Things and Related Applications by Kohji Mitsubayashi and Osamu Niwa and Yuko Ueno was honored in the Chemistry and Physics category and Handbook of Sleep Disorders in Medical Conditions by Josée Savard and Marie-Christine Ouellet was honored in the Textbook/Medicine and Clinical Science category.

These two titles both represent some of the best scholarship to come out of their respective fields in recent years.

Chemical, Gas, and Biosensors for Internet of Things and Related Applications features an interdisciplinary examination of sensors and analytical chemistry, devices and machines, and network and information technology. As Internet of Things (IoT)-equipped devices become more and more commonplace, more advanced technologies open up new opportunities to integrate IoT devices into fields such as healthcare, biomedicine, and food and environmental safety monitoring. Chemical, Gas, and Biosensors for Internet of Things explores this rapidly changing landscape and offers researchers and engineers in relevant fields a fantastic overview of the field.

For a limited time you can read Chapter 2 – Design, application, and integration of paper-based sensors with the Internet of Things on ScienceDirect

In the healthcare field, Savard and Ouellet’s Handbook of Sleep Disorders in Medical Conditions is a comprehensive review of sleep disorders and how they present and affect common medical conditions, such as epilepsy, dementia, and traumatic brain injury. As sleep (or its lack) can greatly affect one’s ability to recover from injury or manage an ongoing condition, its consideration is a vital element of a treatment plan. Handbook of Sleep Disorders in Medical Conditions is ideal for neurologists, physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals looking to expand their knowledge on this important topic.
