We are delighted to announce that part 1 of a two-part themed issue resulting from papers originally submitted to the CompBioMed Conference 2019 has now been published with many articles available for all to read as open source articles, The Royal Society Interface Focus.
Part 2 of the themed issue, on Organs and Systems, will be published on 11 December 2020
