Overview
Journal of Computational Biology is the leading journal in the analysis, management, and visualization of cellular information at the molecular level. It offers peer-reviewed articles focusing on novel, cutting-edge methods in computational biology and bioinformatics. The Journal is known for publishing articles that strike a balance between two dimensions—in-depth statistical, mathematical, and computational analysis of the methods, and rigorous evaluation of their practical impact in the application domain. Available only online, this is an essential journal for scientists and students who want to keep abreast of developments in bioinformatics.
Journal of Computational Biology coverage includes:
- Genomics
- Mathematical modeling and simulation
- Distributed and parallel biological computing
- Designing biological databases
- Pattern matching and pattern detection
