Journal of Advanced Microscopy Research (JAMR) is a multi-disciplinary peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for rapid dissemination of important research developments in the fields of high-resolution microscopy techniques as well as their applications in all areas of science, engineering and medicine. JAMR focuses on all types of high-resolution microscopy techniques to image, map, characterize and analyze man-made and natural materials at micro- and nano-scale to study the physico-chemical phenomena such as abrasion, adhesion, corrosion and friction; to perform micro and nanofabrication, lithography, patterning, micro- and nano-manipulation; theory and modeling. JAMR reports cutting-edge research on advanced technologies and applications of microscopy in chemistry, physics, materials science, polymer science, engineering, biology, life sciences, health science, nanoscience and nanotechnology.
