BioSystemsis a monthlypeer-reviewedscientific journalcovering experimental, computational, and theoretical research that linksbiology,evolution,and theinformation processingsciences. It was established in 1967 asCurrents in Modern BiologybyRobert G. Grenelland published by North-Holland Publishing Company out of Amsterdam until North-Holland merged withElsevierin 1970.[1]Grenell wrote of his purpose in founding the journal,

It has become necessary to develop a new language of biology; a new mathematics, and to strip biological theory and experiment of their classical approaches, assumptions and limitations. It is such considerations which underlie the establishment of this journal.[2]

In 1972 the journal was renamedCurrents in Modern Biology: Bio Systems,which was shortened toBioSystemsin 1974. Previous editors include J.P. Schadé, Alan W. Schwartz,Sidney W. Fox,Michael Conrad,[3]Lynn Margulis,[4]David B. Fogel,Gary B. Fogel,George Kampis, Francisco Lara-Ochoa,Koichiro Matsuno,Ray Paton, and W. Mike L. Holcombe.

According to theJournal Citation Reports,the journal has a 2023impact factorof 2.0.[5]

Special issues ofBioSystemscover different aspects of theoretical and evolutionary biology. The special issue "Symbiogenesis and Progressive Evolution"(2021) is dedicated toBoris Kozo-PolyanskyandLynn Margulisand contains articles about these scientists, and also includes an annotated translation of the article byKonstantin Merezhkovsky,in which the concept ofsymbiogenesiswas first outlined.[6]The special issue "Fundamental principles of biological computation: From molecular computing to biological complexity"(2022) is dedicated to the memory of one of the founders ofcomputational biologyEfim Libermanand contains his autobiography "On the way to a new science".[7]The special issue "Biological Thermodynamics: Bridging the gap between physics and life"(2024) is dedicated toErvin Bauerand contains biographical[8][9]and theoretical[10]articles about him, as well as English translations of his major works.[11]
