Abstract Theoretical biology journals can contribute in many ways to the progress of knowledge. They are particularly well-placed to encourage dialogue and debate about hypotheses addressing problematical areas of research. An online journal provides an especially useful forum for such debate because of the option of posting comments within days of the publication of a contentious article. Editorial Theoretical biology encompasses proposals ranging from new mathematical models of well-studied biological processes to speculative notions that inhabit the borderland between science and philosophy. Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling can accommodate everything within that range subject to peer review and editorial approval. Novel hypotheses addressing phenomena that have defied satisfactory explanation are especially welcome provided they meet the basic criterion of testability at least in principle because they can stimulate debate or excite controversy and are ipso facto healthy for science. Theoretical biology has not enjoyed the status of say theoretical physics because biology is primarily
