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 required to provide a brief paragraph (up to 150 words) describing background references. The authors are encouraged to provide a short paragraph (up to 100 words) describing their current research interests, education background and professional experience. 

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. 

Manuscripts must be written in English and submitted by e-mail in pdf or ps formatst (if less than 2MB) 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 are contact addresses for authors.
