Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mathematical modeling is a fundamental tool for understanding complex biological phenomena, including disease dynamics, ecological interactions, and evolutionary processes. This Special Issue aims to showcase cutting-edge research employing deterministic, stochastic, and hybrid modeling approaches to address key biological challenges.
We invite submissions that develop, analyze, and apply mathematical techniques to biological systems, with a particular focus on the following:
- Cancer dynamics and immune system interactions;
- Epidemiological modeling and infectious disease spread;
- Population dynamics and ecological modeling;
- Systems biology and physiological processes;
- Population ecology, predator–prey, host–parasitoid, and host–parasite systems, including discrete maps, chaos detection, and control strategies;
- Reaction–diffusion models and complex spatiotemporal patterns in biological systems.
We encourage theoretical studies, numerical simulations, empirical validation, and interdisciplinary collaborations. This Special Issue seeks to foster innovative approaches that advance our understanding of biological systems through sophisticated mathematical modeling techniques.

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. Mathematics 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 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.

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.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
