About the journal
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering (MBE) is a quarterly international journal focusing on new developments in the fast-growing fields of mathematical biosciences and engineering. Areas covered include general mathematical methods and their applications in biology, medical and biomedical sciences and engineering with an emphasis on work related to mathematical modeling, nonlinear, and stochastic dynamics. The editorial board of MBE is strongly committed to promoting cutting-edge, integrative and interdisciplinary research bridging mathematics, life sciences and engineering.
Instructions to Authors
Manuscripts must be written in English and submitted by e-mail in pdf or ps formats (if less than 5MB) directly to the editorial office, CLASjournals@asu.edu, with a copy to kuang@asu.edu. The authors are encouraged to name one or two appropriate associate editors from the editorial board to review their manuscripts. All communications will be conducted by e-mails
The following files are helpful for you to prepare your manuscript for MBE. 1): MBE template file MBE.cls; 2): A sample LATEX tex file tex; 3): The pdf file generated by the above two files (and figure files, not provided) pdf
To facilitate key words searching and indexing, all manuscripts shall contain AMS subject classification information and key words. In order to read the changes suggested by our copy editors, you may need to use the latest Adobe Reader. Additional information on TEX preparation can be found at: http://aimsciences.org/journals/Tex_prep.htm.
Author(s) of accepted manuscript must prepare their manuscripts using MBE template and provide high resolution figures (if any) to ensure speedy quality production. Authors must sign and return the copyright agreements form in the following preference order: scanned file, or surface mail, or fax it to 417- 886-0559. Author(s) will receive 50 free reprints.
General topics appropriate for MBE include, but are not limited to, the following: all areas of mathematical biology and medicine, computational neuroscience, biomedical signal processing and data analysis, models based on nonlinear dynamics and stochastic processes to understand problems in biomedical science and engineering, modeling and design of biologically inspired engineering systems, etc. In particular, to be considered by this journal, a paper (except survey papers) should be in one (or a combination) of these three categories:
(a) Papers developing and (mathematically) analyzing scientific models that have concrete applications in biomedical sciences and engineering; (b) Papers devoted to mathematical theory and methods with a clear scientific and engineering motivation whose results lead to an improved understanding of the underlying problem; and (c) Papers using numerical simulations or experiments, to reveal or explain new scientific and engineering phenomena, where mathematical analysis plays a major role in the analysis and process.
Papers submitted to this journal must contain a comprehensive introductory section and an in-depth discussion section. The scientific importance and motivations of the paper and its conclusions should be made clear at the outset. Furthermore, the paper must be presented in a way that its main results, and methods, together with their applicability, can be comprehended by people from a wide range of scientific fields. Manuscripts applying standard techniques to slightly new problems or providing mathematical analysis in the absence of significant scientific motivation will not be considered. Papers oriented toward experimentation or numerical simulation must have a novel and sound theoretical explanation.
To ensure and enhance readability of articles, authors are encouraged to provide a brief paragraph (up to 150 words) describing background references in the text, preferably in the introduction section. The authors are encouraged to provide their homepage addresses after their e-maill addresses, if available.
Survey articles must be timely and of broad interest. It shall have an insightful historical account of the surveyed topic and articulate the topic's scientific importance.
The following are contact addresses for authors.
