The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) has announced the launch of a new Science Partner Journal, Cyborg and Bionic Systems, published in affiliation with the Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT).
Cyborg and Bionic Systems' mission is to promote the knowledge interchange and hybrid system codesign between living beings and robotic systems. Living beings inspire improvements or novel robotics systems which, in turn, enable knowledge enhancement and extension of capabilities for living creatures. The scope will cover a wide range of fields related to cybernetic organisms (cyborg) and bionic systems (CBS), mainly including robotics, biomedical engineering and neuro-engineering. The journal will publish original Research Articles, Review Articles, Perspectives and Editorials.
Professor Toshio Fukuda from the Beijing Institute of Technology will serve as the Editor-in-Chief of Cyborg and Bionic Systems. He is also the 2020 IEEE president and a foreign member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Cyborg and Bionic Systems is currently open for submissions and will publish under a Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY). Two additional Science Partner Journal titles from BIT are also launching this year. Energy Material Advances is currently open for submissions and Space: Science & Technology will launch later this year.
New titles participating in the Science Partner Journal program will launch on a regular basis and participation in the program is kept to English-language publications. AAAS is actively seeking new partners across scientific disciplines. Organisations participating in the Science Partner Journal program will be editorially independent and responsible for the content published in each journal. Partner organisations are responsible for establishing editorial boards committed to best practices in peer review and author service.
