Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Systems biology is a rapidly growing field, yet many biological systems remain qualitatively undescribed. We use mathematical modeling and develop computational methods and tools to study how the parts of biological systems interact to produce complex dynamic behavior. Without these computational techniques and mathematical modeling, overall behavior of the complex biological systems cannot be intuitively understood.
This Special Issue is dedicated to publishing the research that takes computational and mathematical approaches to study biological systems. We encourage all contributions, including: mathematical, theoretical, analytical and computational studies of system-level properties of biological systems; dynamic models of biological networks; control theory; systems-oriented approaches; big data analysis methods and tools; studies using deterministic and stochastic approaches. Computational studies of gene–protein interaction networks, metabolic networks, cell communication, population dynamics, infectious disease evolution and ecological systems are all supportively invited for this Special Issue.

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. Entropy 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 2600 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.
