Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biological systems, from cellular pathways to ecosystems, exhibit intricate dynamics shaped by nonlinear interactions. Advances in biological systems, computational tools and synthetic biology have created opportunities to model, control and optimize these systems for transformative applications in healthcare, biomanufacturing and environmental sustainability. However, challenges persist in balancing model accuracy, scalability and real-world applicability. This proposal aims to achieve specific goals such as maintaining homeostasis, improving bioprocesses or developing novel therapeutic approaches. By integrating modeling, control and optimization techniques, researchers can gain a deeper understanding of biological systems and potentially develop more effective strategies for their manipulation and application.

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.
