Special section on Engineering the Upper Limb, issue H7. Guest-edited by GR Johnson, A Bull, and C Holt.
The specialist section of this issue contains papers on upper limb biomechanics presented at the IMechE Conference ‘Engineering the Upper Limb’ held in London in April 2008. The majority of papers in this Special Section concern the shoulder complex, with the remaining two being devoted to wrist and hand. This balance reflects the increased interest in shoulder biomechanics over the last few years, with real progress in understanding and in the development of novel prostheses. We hope that this issue will be of interest to all of the readership and that it may stimulate further interest in upper limb biomechanics.

Biomedical Engineering Education, issue H4. Guest-edited by T Joyce.
The papers published in this Special Issue cover a wide spectrum: from a macro view of biomedical engineering programmes in an entire country, to the pedagogical issues inherent in the design, development, delivery, and evaluation of a single biomedical engineering module.

Theoretical, Computational, and Experimental Biofluid Mechanics, issue H4. Guest-edited by AW Khir, SJ Sherwin and TJ Pedley
This Special Issue demonstrates a variety of theortical, computational, and computational, and experimental research techniques which are currently being used to understand the dynamics of fluids within the cardiovascular, urinary, and respiratory systems.

Current Concepts and Clinically Significant Outcomes of Recent Research into Spinal Mechanics., issue H2. Guest-edited by M Pearcy, C Adam, R Thompson and R Wilcox.
This Special Issue has compiled papers that lead from an anatomical study of spinal muscles, through techniques for measuring the mechanical response of the spine and for simulating activities to gain an insight into its behaviour, to a number of studies investigating current treatments to assess their validity.
