New Insights in Translational Bioinformatics

Dear Colleagues,

Translational bioinformatics is an emerging field that focusses on providing efficient translation of basic science (molecular, genetic and cellular) and clinical data into clinical practice. As a multidisciplinary field of science, translational bioinformatics combines biology, computer science, data engineering, mathematics, statistics and medicine to analyse and interpret the molecular basis of disease that has strong implications in clinical products or human health. New technologies and the increasingly voluminous amounts of scientific and clinical data are posing challenges in different fields, such as single-cell analysis, spatial image analysis, genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, multi-omics data analysis, multimodal integration of molecular and clinical data, drug discovery, personalised medicine and biomarkers. In this Special Issue, manuscripts focusing on topics including but not limited to single-cell sequencing, spatial imaging, machine learning, artificial intelligence, next-generation sequencing for personalised medicine and biomarkers, rare and common variants of disease, drug discovery, system biology, pharmacogenomics, biomedical data mining and data visualisation are invited. Original research articles, reviews, opinions/commentaries, perspectives and short communications are welcome.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
