Microsystems & Nanoengineering, with a target for a high-end journal for years to come, seeks to promote research on all aspects of microsystems and nanoengineering from fundamental to applied research. This journal will publish original articles and reviews on cutting-edge and emerging topics in microsystems and nanoengineering, and articles should be of high quality, high interest, and far-reaching consequence. The scope of this new journal covers new design (theory, modelling, and simulation), fabrication, characterization, reliability, and applications of devices and systems in micro- and nano-scales. This new journal will provide a home for the latest research and a platform for more exchange and collaboration among scientists in the new multidisciplinary area. 

Topics of particular interest within the journal's scope include, but are not limited to, those listed below:

    New physics of micro- and nano-systems
    Micro- and nano-mechanics, modelling
    New materials for micro- and nano-systems
    Micro- and nano-structures
    Micro- and nano-sensors
    Micro- and nano-actuators
    Micro- and nano-fluidics
    Polymer MEMS and NEMS
    Biomedical MEMS and NEMS
    Energy harvesting and power MEMS
    Micro- and nano-optics, optical MEMS
    Integrated photonics, hybrid optical and electronic integration
    Nanophotonic systems and circuits, microwave photonics
    Micro- and nano-engineered systems, integrated microsytems and functional nanosystems
    Micro-and nano-fabrication technologies, “top-down” and “bottom-up” technologies
    Characterization of micro- and nano-systems
    Micro- and nano-scale mass and heat transfer
    Applied sciences of micro- and nano-systems

He is also serving as the founding Editor-in-Chief for the first AAAS/Science Partner Journal titled Research.  
Prof. Ian White is currently Master of Jesus College, van Eck Professor of Engineering, Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Head of Photonics Research at the Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge. Ian is originally from Northern Ireland, coming up to Jesus College in 1977 to read Engineering. He gained his BA and PhD degrees from the University of Cambridge in 1980 and 1984. He was then appointed a Research Fellow and Assistant Lecturer at the University of Cambridge before becoming Professor of Physics at the University of Bath in 1990. He moved in 1996 to the University of Bristol, before returning to the University of Cambridge in October 2001. At Cambridge he has also previously held the roles of Head of the School of Technology and Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Institutional Affairs.
Ian has contributed to a variety of research activities in photonics, ranging from short pulse laser diodes, optoelectronic components for signal processing and routing, high speed components for data communications, to techniques for transmitting digital and radio frequency signals over long distances of multimode optical fibre. He has published in excess of 900 journal and conference papers, and is co-founder of Zinwave Ltd and Pervasid Ltd.
Ian is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, the Institution of Electrical Engineers and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. He is heavily involved in policy development and administration of research and sits on a number of International Conference Committees. He was a Member of the Board of Governors of the IEEE Photonics Society (2008-2012).
