Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the advent of precision medicine, where the patient treatments are selected based on the genetic understanding of their diseases, it is important to understand the relationship between genes and their complex mechanisms. Gene pathways and gene regulatory networks describe the relationship between genes based on biological experiments, but many remain unexplored. Unlike traditional approaches which rely on a single type of omics data, mostly only gene expression, this Special Issue would like to address the ongoing challenge of identifying gene relationships using innovative microbiological and biotechnological approaches, with focus on the integration of multiple omics datasets to enhance the accuracy of gene clustering analysis. The key objectives include developing novel algorithms for integrating multiple omics data to understand the underlying biological process, presenting application in the fields of microbiology and biotechnology, and discussing the potential implications for personalized treatment strategies using an improved gene clustering algorithm. In summary, this Special Issue invites original research articles that contribute to the integrative analysis using multiple omics data for gene clustering algorithm in microbiological and biotechnological research.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Bioengineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
