From the Editors

It is easy to argue that we are entering a new golden era of science and engineering. The predominant approach of conducting timely and in-depth scientic research is forever changed from cycles of simple experiment and theory to cycles that combine of experiment, theory, mathematical modeling, and analysis. The landscape of science is now clearly dominated by the peaks of biosciences. Integrative and interdisciplinary research in life sciences and engineering is no longer merely a slogan but aggressively and collectively pursued and practiced by researchers. This shift of paradigms greatly enhances the central importance of mathematical and computational modeling and analysis in scientic and engineering endeavors. With this exciting backdrop in mind, the American Institute of Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) and Beihang University have decided to launch a joint international journal on mathematical biosciences and engineering. This journal will maximally serve the scientic communities in both developed and developing countries.
