The application and utilization of sprays is not new, and in modern society, it is extensive enough that almost every industry and household uses some form of sprays. What is new is an increasing scientific interest in atomization - the need to understand the physical structure of liquids under conditions of higher shear rates and interaction with gaseous flow. This need is being met with the publication of Atomization and Sprays, an authoritative, international journal presenting high quality research, applications, and review papers.

Biomedical engineering has been characterized as the application of concepts drawn from engineering, computing, communications, mathematics, and the physical sciences to scientific and applied problems in the field of medicine and biology. Concepts and methodologies in biomedical engineering extend throughout the medical and biological sciences. This journal attempts to critically review a wide range of research and applied activities in the field. More often than not, topics chosen for inclusion are concerned with research and practice issues of current interest. Experts writing each review bring together current knowledge and historical information that has led to the current state-of-the-art. Each issue contains one or more critical reviews of specified topics representing applied, clinical and basic science areas. Most articles contain in-depth appraisals of the current state-of-the-art in a specific area of research or practice and provide complete and up-to-date bibliographies. Each review attempts to be nearly exhaustive in a constrained area rather than broad and overarching. The critical evaluations of current research and development issues include interpretive discussions of major problems. From time to time, a series of articles in a related topic area are published in order to give comprehensive coverage. Collaborative works generated by multiple authors are frequently used to provide in-depth coverage from multiple viewpoints. Each article is reviewed by one or more independent experts in the field. The editor invites comments and suggestions about the contents of the reviews.

Critical ReviewsTM in Eukaryotic Gene Expression presents timely concepts and experimental approaches that are contributing to rapid advances in our mechanistic understanding of gene regulation, organization, and structure within the contexts of biological control and the diagnosis/treatment of disease. The journal provides in-depth critical reviews, on well-defined topics of immediate interest, written by recognized specialists in the field. Extensive literature citations provide a comprehensive information resource.Reviews are developed from an historical perspective and suggest directions that can be anticipated. Strengths as well as limitations of methodologies and experimental strategies are considered. The contributions of molecular, cellular, biochemical, genetic, genomic, and proteomic approaches to eukaryotic gene expression are incorporated into reviews. The relationship between gene structure and function is stressed, with emphasis on coordinate control of biological processes. Regulatory mechanisms are explored from the perspective of sequences and regulatory molecules that influence structure and expression of eukaryotic genes as well as in relation to cellular architecture and its relationship to development of cell specialization and tissue organization. Processes that include genetic and epigenetic control, cell cycle regulation, differentiation, transformation and tumorigenesis, senescence, cell survival and apoptosis, development, reproduction, cell fate, lineage commitment, stem cell biology and regenerative medicine are covered.All articles are by invitation; however, the editors welcome suggestions of both topics and authors.

The great advances in immunology in recent years make this field one of the most rapidly growing in biological sciences. This remarkable growth is stimulated by the influx of investigators from other disciplines such as biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and by an increased number of investigators who came to immunology through the more traditional routes of microbiology and various medical disciplines. As a consequence, immunology has become a vast and rich field encompassing outlooks that range from the highly clinical to the highly molecular. Although such perspectives may appear diverse, they are, in fact, highly interdependent. Critical ReviewsTM in Immunology presents a balanced overview of contemporary immunology and melds together molecular immunology and immunobiology.

The primary objective of "Critical ReviewsTM in Oncogenesis" is the advancement and dissemination of scientific and clinical knowledge relating to the molecular basis of Oncogenesis for both its originality and scientific merit. CRO is dedicated to publishing timely critical reviews on topics of current interests with emphasis in basic, molecular and translational applications in the field of Oncogenesis. Further emphasis will also be placed on the role Oncogenesis in the development of cancer and malignancies as well as the role of cancer stem cells and their oncogenic potential. Reviews will also consider the role of oncogenes as diagnostics and therapeutic targets. This journal will publish special thematic issues on selected topics such as described above and employing many multidisciplinary approaches. Articles are by invitation only.In contrast to reviews in several other publications, CRO will be focused on its specific and unique thematic approach for each issue that is contributed by various experts in and, often, an invited Guest Editor will be appointed for a particular issue. This multidisciplinary approach for a specific topic in Oncogenesis will distinguish CRO from many other journals whereby individual reviews are published. We believe that the new CRO objective will lead to a wide readership and will be used as an essential reference for research scientists, clinicians, students, and health professionals. The new Aims and Scope of CRO are designed to interest a wide readership and make it a reference standard in Oncogenesis.

Therapeutic uses of a variety of drug carrier systems have significant impact on the treatment and potential cure of many chronic diseases, including cancer, diabetes mellitus, psoriasis, parkinsons, Alzheimer, rheumatoid arthritis, HIV infection, infectious diseases, asthma, and drug addiction. Scientific efforts in these areas are multidisciplinary, involving the physical, biological, medical, pharmaceutical, biological materials, and engineering fields.Articles concerning this field appear in a wide variety of journals. With the vast increase in the number of articles and the tendency to fragment science, it becomes increasingly diffcult to keep abreast of the literature and to sort out and evaluate the importance and reliability of the data, especially when proprietary considerations are involved. Abstracts and noncritical articles often do not provide a sufficiently reliable basis for proper assessment of a given field without the additional perusal of the original literature. This journal bridges this gap by publishing authoritative, objective, comprehensive multidisciplinary critical review papers with emphasis on formulation and delivery systems. Both invited and contributed articles are subject to peer review.
