We are delighted to announce that Computational Biomedicine. Part II: Organs and Systems of a two-part Theme Issue resulting from papers originally submitted to the CompBioMed Conference 2019 has now been published in The Royal Society’s “Interface Focus” journal, with articles available for all to read as open source.
Part II concentrates on organs and systems and follows from Part I: Molecular Medicine, which was published on 16 October 2020

In this issue you will find an Introduction by our Coordinator, Prof. Peter Coveney, describing the work that has been done and still needs to be done in the field of Computational Biomedicine and, in particular, in the area of organs and systems, which the Issue deals with.
