Multi-national leaders of the World Molecular Imaging Congress (WMIC) recently made Molecular Imaging and Biology (MIB) the permanent voice of the Congress. Adding this new role to the fact that the SMI and ESMI have joined with the AMI to make this their official journal raises the collaboration between all of the organizations to a new levelk, and we believe this will benefit many of the stakeholders in the molecular imaging field.

MIB is published by Springer and abstracted/indexed in: Academic OneFile, Academic Search, AGRICOLA, ChemWeb, CSA/Proquest, Current Abstracts, Current Contents/Clinical Medicine, EMBASE, EMBiology, EMCare, Gale, Google Scholar, Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition, OCLC, PubMed/Medline, Science & Technology Collection, Science Citation Index Expanded (SciSearch), SCOPUS, Summon by Serial Solutions, TOC Premier

Molecular Imaging and Biology presents original research contributions on the utilization of molecular imaging in problems of relevance in biology and medicine. The primary objective of the journal is to provide a forum for the discovery of molecular mechanisms of health and disease through the use of imaging techniques.

Among the topics covered are molecular imaging investigations of macromolecular targets involved in significant biological processes; design and evaluation of molecular probes used to investigate macromolecular targets and their functions; and study of in vivo animal models of disease for the development of new molecular diagnostics and therapeutics.
