Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the era of massively parallel sequencing, single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptome, as well as multi-omics data integration, there are a myriad of opportunities in computational biology and bioinformatics, although computational challenges still exist. In this Special Issue, we invite you to contribute your latest work on one or several of the following computational/mathematical approaches:
- Graph Theory;
- Statistical Learning;
- Bayesian Inference ;
- Optimization Parameter Estimate;
- Deep learning.
Your work may address one or several of the following areas:
- Single-cell DNA/RNA sequencing analysis;
- Spatial transcriptome;
- Multi-omics;
- Mutations calling on single-cell DNA/RNA sequencing data and sc-ATAC data;
- Personalized medicine.
In conclusion, any contribution that utilizes mathematical and computational approaches to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the biological systems or proposes a new computational tool to manipulate the biological data produced by the new technologies will be appreciated. We look forward to seeing your proposed work.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
