The Bulletin of Mathematical Biology has long been a premier publication for the dissemination of research findings at the interface of mathematics and biology.

“The mathematical sciences are rapidly becoming a key enabling technology for the life sciences and medicine,” said Laubenbacher. “I am very excited to be in a position to help create the best possible publishing infrastructure to facilitate this. I am honored to continue the long tradition of the Bulletin as a premier outlet for research in quantitative biology.”
