About this collection
This special collection marks 10 years of our Emerging Investigators, an annual collection launched in 2014 showcasing high quality research being carried out by international researchers in the early stages of their independent careers. In celebration of the 10th anniversary of this initiative, the collection features new exciting work from contributors to the early Emerging Investigator collections. We hope you enjoy discovering how their research has progressed over the last 10 years.
New articles will be added to this collection as they are published.
