JOURNAL OF THEORETICAL BIOLOGY SCISCIE

中文简介

《理论生物学杂志》是提供深入了解生物过程的理论观点的领先论坛。它涵盖了非常广泛的主题，并在许多研究领域引起生物学家的兴趣，包括:?大脑和神经科学?癌症的生长和治疗?细胞生物学?发育生物学?生态?进化?免疫学、?传染性和非传染性疾病，?数学、计算、生物物理和统计建模?微生物学、分子生物学和生物化学?网络和复杂系统?生理学?药效学?动物行为和博弈论请注意，应清楚说明正在研究的问题的生物学意义。可接受的论文是那些对所呈现的生物学有重要意义的论文，而不是对数学分析本身有重要意义的论文。包括一些数据的论文将被考虑，包括那些包含比较研究、统计数据分析、数学证明、计算机模拟、实验、现场观察，甚至哲学论证的论文，这些都是支持或反对理论观点的方法。然而，应该齐心协力使所选领域的生物学家能够理解论文。不基于现有生物学知识的高度推测性论文将不予接受。同样不能接受的是，仅使用数学，或将标准统计方法应用于现有的基因组数据，而没有新的理论视角或生物学上的新见解的论文。欢迎对理论问题或发表在期刊上的论文发表意见，并写信给编辑。

英文简介

The Journal of Theoretical Biology is the leading forum for theoretical perspectives that give insight into biological processes. It covers a very wide range of topics and is of interest to biologists in many areas of research, including:? Brain and Neuroscience ? Cancer Growth and Treatment ? Cell Biology ? Developmental Biology ? Ecology ? Evolution ? Immunology,? Infectious and non-infectious Diseases, ? Mathematical, Computational, Biophysical and Statistical Modeling ? Microbiology, Molecular Biology, and Biochemistry ? Networks and Complex Systems ? Physiology ? Pharmacodynamics ? Animal Behavior and Game TheoryPlease note that the biological significance of the problem being studied should be clearly stated.Acceptable papers are those that bear significant importance on the biology being presented, and not on the mathematical analysis, per se. Papers that include some data will be considered, including those that contain comparative study, statistical data analysis, mathematical proof, computer simulations, experiments, field observations, or even philosophical arguments, which are all methods to support or reject theoretical ideas. However, there should be a concerted effort to make papers intelligible to biologists in the chosen field.Highly speculative papers not based on current biological knowledge will not be accepted. Also not acceptable are papers in which only mathematics is utilized, or standard statistical methods are applied to existing genomic data, without new theoretical perspective or biologically novel insight.Comment on theoretical issues or on papers published in the journal is welcomed in the form of Letters to the Editors.
