MBE focuses on new developments in the fast-growing fields of mathematical biosciences and engineering. Areas covered include most areas of mathematical and computational biology, medicine and engineering with an emphasis on integrative and interdisciplinary research bridging mathematics, biology and engineering.

General topics appropriate for MBE include, but are not limited to, all areas of mathematical and computational biology and medicine, computational neuroscience, cancer biology and medicine, Bioinformatics, systems biology, genetics and genomics, ecology, population dynamics, computational pharmacology, physiology, immunology, molecular and structural biology, cell and developmental biology, epidemiology, biomedical signal processing and data analysis, Bioengineering, Biophysics, models based on differential equations, nonlinear dynamics, stochastic processes, as well as computational approaches that aim to understand complex living systems, and engineering problems, and modeling and designing of biologically inspired engineering systems, computational intelligence and complexity.
