Mathematical Biology and Its Applications to Disease Modeling

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, there has been a surge of interest and significant progress in the application of mathematical methodologies to unravel the complexities inherent in biological systems. Mathematical modeling, particularly within the realms of within-host dynamics, differential equations, biomathematics, population dynamics, mathematical epidemiology, optimal control in biological systems, multiscale modeling, data analysis applied to biological systems, and machine learning applied to health, has played a pivotal role in enhancing our understanding of these intricate systems.

To further catalyze advancements in the field, we invite submissions of high-quality research papers for a Special Issue dedicated to the exploration of mathematical modeling and analysis in biological systems. We encourage contributions that focus on, but are not limited to, the key areas listed below. Our objective is to create a collaborative platform for knowledge exchange, fostering interdisciplinary dialogues that will propel the detection as well as control of the spread of infectious and non-infectious diseases.

We look forward to your valuable contributions and the collective exploration of the exciting frontiers where mathematics intersects with the intricate dynamics of biological systems. Researchers from diverse disciplines, including mathematics, biology, physics, and computer science, are invited to submit papers on their latest findings, innovative techniques, and applications of mathematical tools to address pivotal questions applied to disease modeling.

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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
