RNAs, as vital molecular actors in biology, are receiving increasing attention in biological research, leading to numerous computational challenges that require novel algorithms. This Collection will focus on the latest advancements in bioinformatics algorithms for computational RNA biology.
We welcome submissions from the broader computational RNA research community that develop the next generation of methods to enhance RNA structure prediction, including 2D and 3D features, identify functional RNA elements within genomes, and synthesize novel classes of functional RNAs. The vibrancy of this community is well reflected in the recurring meeting on "Computational Approaches to RNA Structure and Function" held every 2-3 years in Benasque, and we particularly encourage contributions from participants of this event.
In line with the mission of Algorithms in Molecular Bioinformatics, this Collection aims to provide a platform for sharing innovative algorithmic ideas and developments, free from the immediate need to surpass established tools in benchmarks.
