Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies is a specialist peer-reviewed journal focusing on the following aspects of postcolonial research, theory and politics:The histories of imperialism and colonialismThe role of culture (academic, literary and popular) in the operation of imperialism and in the formations of national resistanceLiberation struggles, past and ongoingThe role of religion and culture in new nationalismsThe contemporary politics of identity; race and ethnicity; gender and sexualityThe economics of neo-colonialismDiaspora and migrancyIndigenous fourth-world culturesThe connections between colonialism and modernity, postcolonialism and postmodernismQuestions of postcolonial literaturesLanguages and translation The assumption guiding the editorial policy of Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies is that a journal, while representing a disciplinary field, can also make effective interventions within it - interrogating, shaping and extending it without seeking to dictate.

When it is possible to determine governing equation(s), shape(s) and size(s) of the domain(s), boundary and initial conditions, material properties of the media contained in the field, and internal sources and external forces or inputs, then the analysis determining the unknown field is considered mathematically well-posed and solvable. If any of these elements are unknown or unavailable, then the field problem becomes incompletely defined (ill-posed) and is of an indirect (or inverse) type.Inverse Problems in Science and Engineering provides an international forum for the discussion of conceptual ideas and methods for the practical solution of applied inverse problems. The Journal aims to address the needs of practising engineers, mathematicians and researchers and to serve as a focal point for the quick communication of ideas. Topics include:Shape design: determination of shape, size and location of domains (shape identification or optimization in acoustics, aerodynamics, electromagnets, etc; detection of voids and cracks).Material properties: determination of physical properties of media.Boundary values/initial values: identification of the proper boundary conditions and/or initial conditions (tomographic problems involving X-rays, ultrasonics, optics, thermal sources etc; determination of thermal, stress/strain, electromagnetic, fluid flow etc. boundary conditions on inaccessible boundaries; determination of initial chemical composition, etc.).Forces and sources: determination of the unknown external forces or inputs acting on a domain (structural dynamic modification and reconstruction) and internal concentrated and distributed sources/sinks (sources of heat, noise, electromagnetic radiation, etc.).Governing equations: inference of analytic forms of partial and/or integral equations governing the variation of measured field quantities. Inverse Problems in Science and Engineering is a unique source of information in this new field that will offer researchers the opportunity to publish their ideas in a single journal. Papers should provide non-trivial examples of practical applications. Multidisciplinary applied papers are particularly welcome.

Islets is the first international, peer-reviewed research journal that will publish manuscripts on all aspects of clinical and experimental research into the physiology and pathology of the Islets of Langerhans and related topics. We are interested in manuscripts that report new information or insights into any aspects of these micro organs.Every year nearly 2000 papers that directly (or indirectly) examine the Islets of Langerhans are published in over 50 different journals. It is now the time to create a forum dedicated to the critical understanding of the Islets of Langerhans. The goal is to foster communication and a rapid exchange of information through timely publication of important results using traditional (print) as well as electronic formats (online). Islets will provide a platform for scientists, clinical researchers and physicians alike.Categories of manuscripts include original research (full length and short communications), reviews, addenda of articles published in other journals, commentaries and meeting reports. All manuscripts are sent for in depth peer review, however, the editorial board will consider reviewer reports from submissions to leading journals such as Nature, Nature Medicine, Science, Cell, Cell Metabolism, JAMA, Diabetes, Transplantation and Lancet for accelerated review. Our goal is for Islets to become the leading journal in the field of islet research.
