Bubble Science, Engineering and Technology is a unique multidisciplinary resource which publishes high quality innovative research on the generation, properties and applications of bubbles in the life and physical sciences, engineering and medicine.

There is rapidly growing interest in the production and control of bubbles in numerous disciplines. Suspensions of stable gas microbubbles play a vital role in the food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, as well as in biotechnology, environmental engineering, and minerals and materials processing. In molecular biology, microbubbles are central to the mesoscale self-assembly of smart materials, microfabrication and DNA-driven assembly. Microbubbles have also shown great promise in therapeutic applications such as targeted drug delivery, gene therapy, thrombolysis and ultrasound surgery, and are the most effective type of contrast agent available for ultrasound radiography.

Recent developments in processing, diagnostics and therapeutics have generated a greatly increased need for advanced preparation technologies that provide a high degree of control over microbubble characteristics. Achieving these objectives requires multidisciplinary collaboration and Bubble Science, Engineering and Technology provides an effective resource for researchers in bubbles research to facilitate these interactions.
