Call for papers Special Issue: Computationalbiomimetics methods in drug design: Theory, Applications, and Future DirectionsJournal: Biomimetics(ISSN 2313-7673). Impact Factor 3.9Submission https://www.mdpi.com/journal/applsci/special_issues/5IQ6DOHB42 Dear Colleague,        Computational biomimetics (CB) methodsdeveloped in the frame of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning(ML) are rapidly evolving technologies that are transforming variousindustries. CB enables machines/systems to exhibit human-like intelligence,offering these machines many opportunities to learn from experience. ThisSpecial Issue aims to explore the theoretical foundations, broad range ofapplications, and future directions of CB. Theoretical research can includeideas such as new algorithms and optimization techniques, while applicationscan range from drug design to discovery. Additionally, topics on ethics andsecurity aim to enhance societal impact and the reliability of CB drug designand discovery. This Special Issue seeks to uncover the potential andlimitations of CB, encouraging innovative research and applications in thefield of interest.     The purpose of this Special Issue isto discuss recent advancements and innovative applications in the fields ofcomputational biomimetics. With a broad scope, it will cover the application ofCB across various disciplines related to drug discovery and design. Kind regards,Prof. dr. habil. Laszlo BarnaIantovicsAssociate Prof. dr.
