Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling: Ensuring continued growth and future leadership

Theoretical biology encompasses a broad range of biological disciplines ranging from mathematical biology and biomathematics to philosophy of biology. Adopting a broad definition of "biology", Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling, an open access journal, considers original research studies that focus on theoretical ideas and models associated with developments in biology and medicine. © 2013 Nishiura et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
