The theme of ISCAS 2014 is nano/bio circuits and systems applied to enhancing living and lifestyles, and, in line with the Society’s Mission and Vision (ieee-cas.org), especially to the multidisciplinary grand challenges in healthcare and well-being, environment and climate change (e.g. see engineeringchallenges.org ). ISCAS is the world’s premier networking forum in the fields of theory, design and implementation of circuits and systems. The Society’s goal is to build it also as the premier forum in pioneering circuits and systems contributions to humanity’s grand challenges. ISCAS 2014 will include oral and poster sessions, tutorials in emerging topics and special sessions complementing the regular program. It will also include invited industry innovation sessions. ISCAS 2014 Keynotes will be delivered by distinguished speakers focusing on grand challenges relevant to the symposium theme.

Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in the areas of the Society’s Technical Committees (listed below) or in other areas relevant to the ISCAS 2014 special theme.
