Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Bioinformatics tools play a vital role in understanding the biological complexity of cancer through the extraction of meaningful information from a large volume of diverse datasets. Of utmost importance are tools for data analysis, visualization, and interpretation that would aid in the attainment of personalized medicine based on omics (genomic, transcriptomic, or proteomic) data, as well as on images and texts.
This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of new and current bioinformatics tools for cancer prediction and prognosis. Contributions may describe novel approaches, or the application of new and existing ones, that aid in the identification of diagnostic, prognostic, or predictive cancer biomarkers; that identify potential therapeutic targets and important cancer-related pathways; or that otherwise provide valuable insight into cancer biology and treatment. To make progress in the field of cancer bioinformatics, contributions by experts in the field in the form of research papers and critical reviews are welcome.

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. Genes 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.
