Aims and scope
The aim of the Journal of Mathematical Biology is, on the one hand, to foster the contribution of mathematical modelling and reasoning to the understanding of biological systems and the explanation of biological phenomena, and, on the other hand, to be a forum for the presentation of biologically inspired problems of a mathematical nature.
Consequently, papers should either provide biological insight as a result of mathematical analysis or identify and open up challenging new types of mathematical problems that derive from biological knowledge (in the form of data, or theory, or simulation results). Mathematical ideas, methods, techniques and results are welcome provided they show sufficient potential for usefulness in a biological context.
Areas of biology covered include, but are not restricted to, biofluids, cell biology, physiology, neurobiology and behaviour, development, ecology, population biology, genetics and evolution, epidemiology, immunology, molecular biology, DNA and protein structure and function. It is understood that research in mathematical biology may rely on advanced computational methods and visualization tools, as well as on the more traditional analytical and stochastic approaches.
The Journal of Mathematical Biology aims to offer its readers occasionally (in approximately every second issue) papers in which state-of-the-art surveys are combined with visionary speculation on topics and problems that, in the author's opinion, deserve serious attention. Ideally such papers should be motivated by biological questions and interpretations and at the same time address substantial mathematical issues. They should provide a stimulus for future developments and consequently have a relatively long citation half-life.
To write such an article, one needs to be an expert with a broad overview of the field and its neighbouring areas. Even then a considerable amount of time and energy is involved. As a reward and token of appreciation, the journal offers, for such published papers, a complimentary subscription for one year. Usually the editors will actively encourage potential authors, but anyone planning to write such an article should not hesitate to contact any of the managing editors. A refereeing procedure is followed in all cases, primarily in order to obtain constructive feedback from outside which will contribute to the potential impact.

Permissions
Online Submission
Manuscript Submission
Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before; that it is not under consideration for publication anywhere else; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities ¨C tacitly or explicitly ¨C at the institute where the work has been carried out. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.
Permissions
Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner(s) for both the print and online format and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers. Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.
Online Submission
Authors should submit their manuscripts online. Electronic submission substantially reduces the editorial processing and reviewing times and shortens overall publication times. Please follow the hyperlink ¡°Submit online¡± on the right and upload all of your manuscript files following the instructions given on the screen.
