Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of Mathematical Biology will focus on recent developments in epidemiological methods and models. We are seeking articles that compare existing models as well as newer versus older models, and those that provide an overview of the development of new models and numerical studies. We expect several of these articles to deal with general theory, while others will cover more specific epidemic and endemic diseases. To be considered for submission, articles should not be purely based on conjectural possibilities but should be related to a current situation or connect a current situation to previous ones.
We hope to hear from authors throughout the world, especially those who are carefully studying the dynamics in the most affected areas.
Dr. James P. Braselton

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.
