Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international Journal focussed on the major areas of colloid/interface/ polymer science. The journal also encompasses aspects of materials science, industrial applications of colloids, and biologically-relevant systems. COCIS is not a primary journal; rather it seeks to guide the researcher through the maze of current published literature, and to highlight areas and papers which, in the opinion of the reviewers, are of special interest and significance. Topics covered in the current year include principles of self assembly, polymers, scattering and reflection methods, surface interactions, food colloids (with emphasis on emulsions), gels and foams, rheology and rheological techniques, surface diagnostic techniques, nanomaterials, surfactant applications, biocolloids, biomaterials, and physico-chemical aspects of colloids. For each of the above areas, a Section Editor(s) is appointed by the Editors-in-Chief who will recommend the commissioning of expert scientists to write an informed and critical article on a topic within that general field. The article is not intended to be a comprehensive compilation of the recent relevant literature, but rather is a personal article by the contributor(s), which sets out to both inform the reader of the major developments in the area, and to identify those papers which in the opinion of the author(s), have made the greatest impact on the field. Normally, the period covered by the review will be the previous two to three years.

《膠體與界面科學的最新觀點》(COCIS)是一本國際期刊，專注于膠體/界面/聚合物科學的主要領域。該雜志還包括材料科學、膠體的工業應用和生物相關系統的各個方面。COCIS不是一本主要期刊;相反，它試圖引導研究人員通過當前出版的文獻迷宮，并突出領域和論文，在評論家看來，是特別的興趣和意義。本年度的主題包括自組裝原理、聚合物、散射和反射方法、表面相互作用、食品膠體(重點是乳劑)、凝膠和泡沫、流變學和流變學技術、表面診斷技術、納米材料、表面活性劑應用、生物膠體、生物材料和膠體的物理化學方面。對于上述每一個領域，由總編任命一名科編輯，他將建議委托專家科學家就該一般領域內的一個主題撰寫一篇有見地和批評性的文章。本文并不打算成為一個綜合編譯近期相關文獻,而是一個個人貢獻者(s)文章,既將告知讀者在該地區的主要進展,并識別這些論文的作者(年代)的意見,作出了最大的影響。一般來說，審查所涉期間為前兩至三年。
