Hosted at the Univer sity of Naples “Parthenope”\, the workshop will offer a vibrant enviro nment for scientific exchange through invited lectures\, oral presentation s\, poster sessions and networking opportunities.\n\nThe workshop focuses on a broad range of topics spanning modern sensing systems and biomedical engineering\, including sensor technologies and characterization\, physica l\, chemical and biosensors\, wearable and flexible systems\, artificial i ntelligence and IoT for healthcare\, therapeutic and diagnostic systems\, rehabilitation technologies\, signal processing\, and energy harvesting so lutions.\n\nFor the photonics community\, BATS 2026 represents an exciting opportunity to explore how optical technologies are increasingly contribu ting to next-generation healthcare solutions. From optical biosensors and wearable photonic devices to advanced imaging systems and intelligent diag nostic platforms\, the workshop highlights the growing role of photonics i n enabling precision medicine\, digital health and personalized care.\n\nT he event also places strong attention on collaboration between academia an d industry\, fostering discussions on translational research and real-worl d applications. Researchers at all career stages\, including students and early-career scientists\, are encouraged to participate and contribute the ir work. Accepted and presented papers will be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library\, subject to IEEE quality requirements.\n\ nImportant deadlines for BATS 2026 include:\n\n- Special Session Proposal Deadline: April 30\, 2026\n- Extended Abstract Submission Deadline: May 30 \, 2026\n- Acceptance Notification: July 15\, 2026\n- Final Paper Submissi on Deadline: September 6\, 2026\n\nBeyond the scientific program\, partici pants will also have the opportunity to experience the unique atmosphere o f Naples\, a city renowned for its history\, culture\, innovation and Medi terranean hospitality.\n\nFurther information\, submission guidelines and updates are available on the official conference website:\n\n[BATS 2026 Of ficial Website](https://bats2026.org/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)\n\nGeneral C hair: Antonino S.
