Feature Papers in Bioinformatics

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, “Feature Papers in Bioinformatics”, aims to collect high-quality research articles, review articles, and communications on advances in the research area of bioinformatics. Since the aim of this topical collection is to illustrate, through selected works, frontier research in the field of bioinformatics, we encourage Editorial Board Members of the Section “Bioinformatics” to contribute feature papers reflecting the latest progress in their research field or to invite relevant senior experts and colleagues to make contributions to this Special Issue. We aim to represent our Section as an attractive open-access publishing platform for bioinformatics. Topics include but are not limited to:

• Molecular sequence analysis
• Sequencing and genotyping technologies
• Regulation and epigenomics
• Transcriptomics, including single-cell
• Metagenomics
• Population and statistical genetics
• Evolutionary, compressive, and comparative genomics
• Structure and function of non-coding RNAs
• Computational proteomics and proteogenomics
• Protein structure and function
• Biological networks
• Computational systems biology
• Privacy of biomedical data
• Bioimaging

Prof. Dr. Stefano Lonardi
Guest Editor

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.
