DESCRIPTION
Mathematical modelling of biological systems and processes is a growing field that makes use of various mathematical models and analysis techniques. This special issue (SI) highlights mathematical and computational approaches, to examine central problems in the biological sciences, ranging from the organizational principles of individual cells to the dynamics of large populations. It will contribute with reference texts for a broad audience of researchers, practitioners, and advanced students, in this rapidly growing field, which encompasses applied mathematics, experimental biology and medicine, computational biology, biochemistry, physics and computer science. Authors are kindly invited to submit their valuable manuscripts to this symposium.
