Mathematical Biosciences is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal publishing work that provides new concepts or new understanding of biological systems using mathematical models, or methodological articles likely to find application to multiple biological systems.

Papers are expected to present a major research finding of broad significance for the biosciences, or mathematical biology.

Mathematical Biosciences welcomes original research articles, letters, reviews and perspectives.

His predecessor was the mathematical and theoretical biologist Santiago Schnell from the University of Notre Dame.
