Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Molecular biology, biochemistry, and biophysics are revealing intricate details of living systems. Leveraging computational methods and data-driven approaches, scientists can annotate and integrate these insights, leading to multiscale systems biology that reconstructs networks of molecular interactions driving the biophysical functions of various cell types. Addressing the challenge of integrating data across physical scales, from molecules to whole organisms, is central to computational biology and biophysics. The importance of multiscale modeling and analysis is particularly evident in biomedicine, where symptoms appear at the tissue, organ, and body levels. Despite this, medical treatments often focus on specific molecules or single organs without considering critical interactions between cells, tissues, and organs. This Special Issue aims to better understand these multiscale interactions to inform medical science and improve therapeutic interventions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Multiscale modeling of cell and molecular biophysics;
- Multiscale modeling of tissue and organ systems;
- Multiscale systems biology and systems biomedicine;
- Multiscale theoretical and computational analysis;
- Data-driven approaches.

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.
