An exciting new journal in the area of contrast agents and molecular imaging, covering all areas of imaging technologies with a special emphasis on MRI! Contrast Media & Molecular Imaging [CMMI] is a new journal providing an international forum for the expeditious publication of original scientific papers, reviews, highlights, surveys, and letters to the editors in the booming areas of contrast media and molecular imaging. The Journal is aimed at the academic, medical, and industrial communities, at the developers and users of these emerging and rapidly developing technologies, mainly in the areas of Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, but also embracing all other in vivo imaging technologies such as x-Ray, PET/CT, etc. Molecular imaging articles will concentrate on the potential role played by MR Imaging and MR Spectroscopy at visualizing, at the molecular or cellular level, the physiology and physio-pathological processes in humans and in animals. Contrast Media articles will cover innovative work on all aspects of this field, such as the development of more sensitive agents, comparison of MR Imaging with other imaging modalities, and prompting of multi-modality approaches. Contrast Media & Molecular Imaging will devote particular attention to the following fields: synthesis, characterization, and applications of new magnetic reporters, search for new vectors, coupling strategies, in vitro as well in vivo evaluation of new methodologies and applications.

Contributions to Indian Sociology (CIS) is a peer-reviewed journal which has encouraged and fostered cutting-edge scholarship on South Asian societies and cultures over the last fifty years. Its regular features include research articles, a discussion section on the sociology of India, short comments, and book reviews. The journal also publishes special issues to highlight new and significant themes in the discipline.CIS invites articles on all countries of South Asia, the South Asian diaspora as well as on comparative studies related to the region. The journal favours articles in which theory and data are mutually related. It welcomes a diversity of theoretical approaches and methods.

Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology is an international journal that accepts high quality research papers in the fields of igneous and metamorphic petrology, geochemistry and mineralogy. Topics of interest include: major element, trace element and isotope geochemistry, geochronology, experimental petrology, igneous and metamorphic petrology, mineralogy, major and trace element mineral chemistry and thermodynamic modeling of petrologic and geochemical processes. Manuscripts should advance our understanding of the fundamental processes that lead to the formation and evolution of the Earth’s crust, mantle and core. Papers should use petrologic, geochemical and mineralogical evidence recorded in rocks and minerals to explore these processes and their implications for the development of the Earth’s crust, mantle and core through time.
