STM publisher IOS Press, Netherlands, has announced the launch of a new journal- Biomedical Spectroscopy and Imaging. The journal claims to be the first to integrate the broad areas of spectroscopy and imaging. Biomedical Spectroscopy and Imaging will seek to provide timely publication of basic and applied research that uses spectroscopic and imaging techniques across all areas of life sciences.
Dr. Parvez Haris will serve as the Editor-in-Chief of the journal. He comes to Biomedical Spectroscopy and Imaging after a successful tenure as Editor-in-Chief of Spectroscopy: An International Journal. Dr. Haris is head of the Biomedical and Environmental Health Group at De Montfort University, Leicester, UK, and his research studies involve the use of a wide array of spectroscopic methods for analysis of biological systems with particular focus on human health. He is joined by an editorial board with expertise in diverse areas of spectroscopy and imaging from around the world.
Biomedical Spectroscopy and Imaging will provide a single forum for experts in spectroscopy and imaging as applied to biomedical problems, and also for life scientists who use these powerful methods for advancing their research work. It will also feature articles describing the development of new devices and technologies, based on spectroscopy and imaging methods, for application in diverse areas including medicine, biomedical science, biomaterials science, environmental science, pharmaceutical science, proteomics, genomics, metabolomics, microbiology, biotechnology, genetic engineering, and nanotechnology.
The inaugural issue of the journal was published on July 13. Access to the first issue is freely available at http://bit.ly/LeBYYg.
