Introducing the Nanoscale Horizons Emerging Investigator Series


Abstract

Nanoscale Horizons is proud to announce our new Emerging Investigator Series that will highlight exceptional work by early-career nanoscience and nanotechnology researchers, selected by our Editorial Board.


Since the launch of Nanoscale Horizons, the journal has had a clear vision to publish exceptionally high-quality work whilst acting as a resource to researchers working at all career levels. We continue to be impressed by the quality of the research published and at the same time are looking for new ways of recognising and promoting the outstanding authors behind articles published in the journal.

This year we are launching an “Emerging Investigator Series” as a way to showcase the exceptional work published by early-career researchers in the journal. We will regularly select a recently published Communication article and publish an interview-style Editorial article featuring the corresponding author. We hope that the series will also benefit the nanoscience community by highlighting the exciting work being done by its early-career members.

The Editorial Board will select each early-career researcher featured in the series from a list of eligible articles. To be considered for the series, corresponding authors must be at an early stage of their independent career (typically this will be within 10 years of completing their PhD, but appropriate consideration will be given to those who have taken a career break or followed a different career path).

“It is such a great opportunity for young scientists to become visible in the wonderful science world.” – Professor Dr Katharina Landfester, Editorial Board Chair.

We are excited to feature our first author in the Emerging Investigator Series, Dr Huiyuan Zhu.

On behalf of the entire editorial team, we thank you for your support of the journal and look forward to sharing in its continued success.

Dr Heather Montgomery, Managing Editor

Professor Dr Katharina Landfester, Editorial Board Chair
