New Developments and Applications in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

Dear Colleagues,

Bioinformatics and Computational Biology is a field of increasing interest due to recent developments in AI and ICT technologies, as well as the production of massive data in the field of biology and medicine thanks to the development of omics techniques. Further development of novel methods and tools is needed to correctly manage, analyze, use and re-use, and interpret the amount of data being generated in the biological sciences. 

This Special Issue aims to present novel methods as well as applications of new and existing tools in the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology area. Developments and applications in genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics are of particular interest, although any study in the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology area is suitable for this Special Issue.
