The Optical Society (OSA) has announced the launch and publication of the first issue of its latest monthly journal, Biomedical Optics Express. With a focus on biomedical optics and photonics, the journal joins OSA's diverse portfolio of 14 peer-reviewed optics journals. Joseph A. Izatt, Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Duke University, will serve as the editor-in-chief of this new journal.
Published online, Biomedical Optics Express provides rapid, open-access publication of content related to optics, photonics, and imaging in the life sciences and its scope encompasses theoretical modeling and simulations, technology development, biomedical studies, and clinical applications. Thirty-one articles are published in the inaugural issue, including contributed submissions and articles from three special issues: Advances in Optical Coherence Tomography, Photoacoustic Imaging, and Microscopy; Bio-optics in Clinical Application, Nanotechnology, and Drug Therapy; and Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy. Additional articles in these special issues will be published during the coming months.
In addition to a wide variety of original research articles, the journal will comprise free colour figures, movies, animations, and live reference links. HTML with MathML (XHTML) versions of each article, suitable for viewing on a range of electronic devices, are published along with the formatted PDF. Biomedical Optics Express also offers readers convenient links to biomedical content selected from other OSA journals. The journal welcomes author videos and submissions featuring OSA's Interactive Science Publishing (ISP) capability for online visualisation of large datasets.
