Founded in 1963, Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing (MBEC) continues to serve the biomedical engineering community, covering the entire spectrum of biomedical and clinical engineering. The journal presents exciting and vital experimental and theoretical developments in biomedical science and technology, and reports on advances in computer-based methodologies in these multidisciplinary subjects. The journal also incorporates new and evolving technologies including cellular engineering and molecular imaging. MBEC publishes original research articles as well as reviews and technical notes. Its Rapid Communications category focuses on material of immediate value to the readership, while the Controversies section provides a forum to exchange views on selected issues, stimulating a vigorous and informed debate in this exciting and high profile field.MBEC is an official journal of the International Federation of Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE).

Metabolic Engineering Communications is devoted to publishing original research in the areas of metabolic engineering, synthetic biology, computational biology and systems biology for problems related to metabolism and the engineering of metabolism for the production of fuels, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals.The journal will carry articles on the design, construction, and analysis of biological systems ranging from pathway components to biological complexes and genomes (including genomic, analytical and bioinformatics methods) in suitable host cells to allow them to produce novel compounds of industrial and medical interest. Demonstrations of regulatory designs and synthetic circuits that alter the performance of biochemical pathways and cellular processes will also be presented. Metabolic Engineering Communications complements the full journal through the publication of articles that are shorter, or describe key elements of larger metabolic engineering efforts, than those published in the full journal while similarly impacting the development of the field.
Types of papers: Short Papers, Priority Communications, and Short Opinion Pieces

Micro & Nano Letters offers express online publication of short research papers containing the latest advances in micro- and nano-scale science, engineering and technology, with at least one dimension ranging from micrometres to nanometres. Micro & Nano Letters offers readers high-quality original research findings from both the micro and nano communities. Micro & Nano Letters addresses issues spanning fundamental understanding to experimental demonstrations in the disciplines of engineering, physical, chemical, biological and material science. It places particular emphasis on cross-disciplinary activities and applications.
