Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our great pleasure to announce the 14th International Conference on Intelligent Biology and Medicine (ICIBM 2026), which will take place in Buffalo, New York, USA, from 2–5 August 2026. ICIBM is a high-caliber conference that brings together eminent scholars with expertise in various fields of computational biology, systems biology, computational medicine, as well as experimentalists interested in the application of computational methods in biomedical studies. The purpose of the ICIBM is to provide a congenial atmosphere that is highly conducive to extensive discussion and networking. Additional information about the conference is available at https://icibm2026.iaibm.org/.
In conjunction with ICIBM 2026, we are organizing a Special Issue that aims to publish high-quality original research articles that have been peer-reviewed, accepted, and presented at the ICIBM 2026 conference. While the conference covers a broad range of topics, this Special Issue is dedicated to cancer research to showcase recent methodological advances and innovative applications of computational and data-driven approaches in precision oncology.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Genomics and Functional Genetics;
- Single-Omics and Multi-Omics data analysis;
- Multimodal Data Integration and Systems Biology;
- Computational Structural Biology and Molecular Modeling;
- Drug Discovery and Precision Therapeutics;
- Image Analysis;
- Natural Language Processing and Knowledge-Driven Methods;
- Medical and Clinical Informatics;
- Methodological Evaluation and Translation;
- Advanced Data Science and Big Data Infrastructure;
Evolutionary and Bio-Inspired Computing.

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 communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Cancers 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 2900 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- Reprint: MDPI Books provides the opportunity to republish successful Special Issues in book format, both online and in print.
