Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Applied mathematics is an important tool in epidemiology because it allows data to be analyzed and predicted for the spread of infectious diseases. With the help of mathematical models, it is possible to estimate the rate of infection spread, determine the most vulnerable groups of the population and develop effective measures for the prevention and control of infectious diseases. Thus, applied mathematics plays an important role in epidemiology and makes it possible to fight infectious diseases more effectively, raising the population’s standards of living and improving the quality of medical services.

This Special Issue focuses on current advances in mathematical epidemiology. It provides a platform for researchers from both academia and industry to present their novel and unpublished work in this domain, regarding (but not limited to) the topics of mathematical modeling and disease forecasting, evaluating epidemiological parameters, planning the measures of disease control and assessing their effectiveness.

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.
