The advent of so-called NextGen DNA sequencing methods has massively increased the rate at which DNA sequence information can be generated, and the volume and complexity of the data matrices that apply to biological questions, including molecular and organismal evolution and population biology. One such approach is the analysis of complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genomes from multiple species...

The capacity to predict and control bioprocesses is perhaps one of the most important objectives of biotechnology. Computational simulation is an established methodology for the design and optimization of bioprocesses, where the finite elements method (FEM) is at the state-of-art engineering multi-physics simulation system, with tools such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Flui...

Structural Biotechnology Journal (CSBJ), which will publish its first issue in April 2012. CSBJ aims to become a significant international participant in the interface of biology and computer science and publish high quality research across the entire biotechnology spectrum. A literature survey shows that the reliance upon computational methods has been growing steadily over the past three deca...
