近年来，亚洲科学在质量和质量上都发展迅速。《生物化学杂志》早在10多年前就发现了这一趋势，我们通过任命编辑委员会成员和在北京开设编辑部，与亚洲顶级研究人员建立了密切的联系，该编辑部由我们的亚太副主席陶旭教授领导，他在中国科学院生物物理研究所工作。为了进一步加强联系，2013年春季，《生物化学杂志》在北京清华大学组织了一次与中国细胞生物学家的研讨会，随后召开了我们的编委会会议。在这次访问期间，生物化学学会（期刊的所有者）进一步发展了与中国生物化学与分子生物学学会（CSBMB）的合作项目，并加强了与CSBMB的关系。去年，我们还任命了第一位亚洲副主席，徐爱民教授（香港大学）在代谢知识环境。我们最近还很高兴地宣布任命京都大学的上杉元成教授为ChemBio知识环境的副主席。化学生物学目前在亚洲特别强大，Uesugi教授通过亚洲化学生物学倡议（http：//www.亚洲化学生物。jp）。近年来，这一令人印象深刻的举措在亚洲化学生物学家之间建立了密切的联系，我们很高兴能够在线提供在马尼拉举行的2014年ACBI会议的报告，该报告显示了该地区在这一领域研究的广度和深度（会议报告可在与本社论相关的补充材料中获得）。亚洲科学将不可避免地继续发展，《生物化学杂志》将与该地区的顶尖科学家一起工作。代谢和ChemBio是我们最新的两个知识环境。我们在2009年推出了BJ Metabolism，作为对代谢过程及其从细胞到生物体水平的调节的重新关注的回应，这在社区中很明显。BJ ChemBio成立于2010年，是一个使用化学工具和技术研究生物系统的论坛。在这些知识环境中发表的论文吸引了引用和下载，我们很高兴为这些社区的作者提供了他们论文的家园。我们鼓励您在这些知识环境中探索论文，如果您是其中任何一个社区的成员，请将您的下一篇论文提交给生物化学杂志，在那里它将获得快速，彻底和公平的审查。
Science in Asia has been developing rapidly in recent years in both quality and quality. The Biochemical Journal spotted this trend more than 10 years ago and we have been building strong links with top-level Asian researchers through appointments to the Editorial Board and by the opening of an editorial office in Beijing headed by our Vice-Chair Asia-Pacific, Professor Tao Xu, at the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. To further strengthen ties, in the Spring of 2013 the Biochemical Journal organized a symposium with Chinese cell biologists at Tsinghua University, Beijing, which was followed by our Editorial Board meeting. Also during this visit, the Biochemical Society (the journal’s owner) developed further its collaborative projects, and fostered its relationship, with the Chinese Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (CSBMB). Last year also saw the appointment of our first Asia-based Deputy Chair, Professor Aimin Xu (University of Hong Kong) in the Metabolism Knowledge Environment. We were recently also pleased to announce the appointment of Professor Motonari Uesugi from Kyoto University as a Deputy Chair in the ChemBio Knowledge Environment. Chemical biology is particularly strong in Asia at the moment and Professor Uesugi has been instrumental in building networks in this space through the Asian Chemical Biology Initiative (http://www. asianchembio. jp). This impressive initiative has built strong links between Asian chemical biologists in recent years, and we are pleased to be able to make available online the report from the 2014 ACBI meeting that was held in Manila, which shows the breadth and depth of research in this area in the region (a report from the meeting as available in the supplementary material associated with this Editorial). Asian science will inevitably continue to grow and the Biochemical Journal will be right there working alongside the top scientists in this region. Metabolism and ChemBio are our two newest Knowledge Environments. We introduced BJ Metabolism in 2009 as a response to the renewed interest in metabolic processes and their regulation from the cellular to the organismal level that was apparent in the community. BJ ChemBio was launched in 2010 as a forum for research on biological systems using chemical tools and techniques. The papers published in these Knowledge Environments have attracted citations and downloads and we are pleased to have provided the authors in these communities with a home for their papers. We encourage you to explore the papers in these Knowledge Environments and, if you are a member of either of these communities, to submit your next paper to the Biochemical Journal, where it will receive a fast, thorough and fair review.
