Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in single-cell and spatial-sequencing technologies have enabled the characterization of cellular- and tissue-level heterogeneity and biological processes in complex diseases. This provides unprecedented opportunities to understand disease pathology at the single-cell level to find new diagnostic markers or new therapeutic targets. The analyses of single-cell and spatially resolved sequencing data allow mechanistic classification and development, providing a practical basis for improving the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
In this Special Issue, we invite you to share computational methods and laboratory innovations that enable the concurrent and integrative analyses of single-cell and spatially resolved multi-omics data. We embrace any novel statistical or deep-learning-based tools, pipelines, and databases that are developed for conquering computational challenges and linking with human health using relevant data. We would also like to showcase novel findings as a result of applications of multi-omics to address significant questions related to human health, including, but not limited to, immuno-oncology, Alzheimer’s disease, host–microbiome interactions, aging, drug resistance, cancer diagnosis, etc. Original research, databases/webservers, and review papers are welcome.
We look forward to reading your contributions to this rapidly advancing, interdisciplinary field.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomolecules is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
