Official Journal BMFH

　Based on some overlapping areas of research, and to enforce our inter-disciplinary efforts, three academic societies, namely, the Intestinal Microbiology Society (IMS, formerly Japan Bifidus Foundation: JBF), the Japan Society for Lactic Acid Bacteria and JAFI decided to launch a journal, “Bioscience of Microbiota, Food and Health: BMFH” from January 2011. This journal is a joint effort of these three societies to consolidate our resources. BMFH is a quarterly journal with an electronic version.
