Chemistry – A European Journal Installs Early Career Advisory Board

Chemistry – A European Journal is the first Chemistry Europe journal to give emerging young researchers a stronger voice in the journal’s development by installing an Early Career Advisory Board. Together with their owner societies, the journal editors have nominated twelve young scientists as new board members.

Chemistry Europe’s Flagship Journal

Chemistry – A European Journal is the flagship journal of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 chemical societies from 15 European countries, representing over 75,000 chemists. It publishes a family of high-quality scholarly chemistry journals, covering a very broad range of disciplines, and the magazine ChemistryViews.

Chemistry Europe values integrity, openness, diversity, cooperation, and freedom of thought. Part of the mission of Chemistry Europe is to evaluate, publish, disseminate, and amplify the scientific excellence of chemistry researchers from around the globe in high-quality publications.

Supporting Early Career Researchers

Another part of the mission of Chemistry Europe is to support researchers at every stage of their careers. With this in mind, Chemistry – A European Journal will be the first Chemistry Europe journal to establish an Early Career Advisory Board to both support early career researchers and to give them a stronger voice in the journal’s development. Several sister journals Chemistry – A European Journal will also set up an Early Career Advisory Board.

Both the owner societies of Chemistry – A European Journal and the journal’s Editorial Board could nominate young researchers. In addition, authors of the journal’s recent Young Chemists special issue were taken into account. Finally, the editors chose 12 of the nominees for the inaugural Early Career Advisory Board of Chemistry – A European Journal.

These young talents already have a track record of high-quality research and also a strong connection to the journal: Together, they have published more than 50 papers in Chemistry – A European Journal in their time as students, postdocs, or independent researchers. Chemistry – A European Journal is an international journal with a strong focus on Europe, as the title implies. This is reflected by the composition of the Early Career Advisory Board.
