澳门六合彩开奖记录

What would you like to know about 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances?

澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances publishes advances in chemistry, and in topics of interest to the chemistry community.

Thoughts from our Editors-in-chief

As the largest gold open access journal dedicated to the chemical sciences, we are here for everyone who wants to publish quality chemistry research and share it with the world.

We are here for everyone who needs access to work in every area of the chemical sciences and related disciplines.

And as part of the 澳门六合彩开奖记录, we are at the heart of open, international research dissemination for the chemistry community.

Great science matters. We make sure the world knows it.

Journal scope

澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances papers should provide an insight that advances the chemistry field. Papers that contain little or no chemistry and are not considered to be of interest or relevance to the chemistry community are not within the scope of the journal.

The criteria for publication are that the work must be high quality, well conducted and advance the development of the field. Articles submitted to the journal are evaluated by our international team of associate editors and reviewers for the overall quality and accuracy of the science presented.

A small number of topic areas have their own additional requirements:

Molecular docking studies should include some physical or experimental validation. Studies that screen a molecule against a set of receptors with no link to physical or experimental data are not suitable for publication.

Purely computational studies on the properties of materials not yet experimentally characterized should include a discussion of the reasons why these materials are potentially interesting for the chemistry community, as well as commenting on their synthetic feasibility. Calculations demonstrating synthetic feasibility should be performed where possible.

Please ensure you have considered the following points before submitting your manuscript.

• Does the work present an advance over the existing literature? Please supply a covering letter with your submission to demonstrate how the work is advancing the field over the existing literature
• Have you provided sufficient evidence/data to support your conclusions?
• Have you provided adequate characterisation data for your materials/compounds? (Please check the supporting information section to ensure that the necessary requirements have been met and copies of relevant spectra have been provided where necessary)
• Are the results discussed in the context of the literature?
• Are the references relevant and do they appropriately reflect the existing literature?

Peer review process

All submissions to 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances are handled by our team of associate editors, who are established scientists actively working in research. All articles published in the journal have been through the full peer review process.

The general process for handling manuscripts is as follows:

Phase 1: Manuscripts are assigned to an associate editor with knowledge and expertise in the area. They carry out an initial assessment to ensure the manuscript meets the basic journal criteria (please see the scope section).

Phase 2: If the manuscript passes the initial assessment the associate editor sends the manuscript for peer review. Associate editors have the option to write their own reviewer report on manuscripts they handle, if they choose to do this they will prepare their report in parallel to the external reviewer who may be either a standard reviewer for the journal or a member of the review panel (see below).

If the manuscript does not pass the initial assessment it is rejected from the journal.

Phase 3: Once both reviewer reports are submitted the associate editor will consider the reports and make a decision on the manuscript. If the reports are conflicting or no clear decision can be made, an adjudicating reviewer will be consulted.

Transparent peer review

As part of our commitment to transparency and open science, 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances is now offering authors the option of transparent peer review, where the editor’s decision letter, reviewers’ comments and authors’ response for all versions of the manuscript will be published alongside the article under an .

Reviewers will remain anonymous unless they choose to sign their report.

Co-review on 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances

What is it?

澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances now offers co-review, which allows two individuals to collaborate on the peer review of a manuscript, with both reviewers eligible for recognition through the Web of Science Reviewer Recognition Service.

When an early career researcher writes a reviewer report on behalf of or in collaboration with their supervisor, it is usually only the supervisor, as the individual invited to review, who receives credit for the report. The introduction of co-review on 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances provides a way for both parties to receive credit for their contribution.

Co-review enables early career researchers to develop their skills in peer review through collaboration with an experienced colleague and to demonstrate experience that may further their career.

How does it work?

When invited to provide a report on a manuscript, reviewers now have the option to accept, decline or co-review with a colleague. If the reviewer opts for co-review, they will be asked to provide the details of their nominated co-reviewer. Only individuals who have completed their PhD studies should be suggested. Please note, it is at the discretion of the handling editor whether the recommended individual is invited to co-review.

Once they have confirmed their suitability, the Associate Editor will invite the nominated individual to co-review the manuscript. If they choose to accept the invitation, they will be directed to the standard 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances report form, which includes a question asking if they were invited for co-review. 

Please note that co-reviewers must meet the 澳门六合彩开奖记录’s peer reviewer eligibility criteria in order to review for 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances. More information can be found at our Author and Reviewer Hub.

澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances Reviewer Panel

澳门六合彩开奖记录 Advances has a dedicated reviewer panel made up of expert reviewers from across the chemical sciences and at all career stages. All members of the reviewer panel work within our terms of reference and we are always happy to consider new applications, particularly from early career researchers and under-represented groups. To apply to join the panel please follow the instructions to become a reviewer.

Supporting information

Experimental information must be provided to enable other researchers to accurately reproduce the work. Figures should include error bars where appropriate, and results should be accompanied by analyses of experimental uncertainty. The experimental details and the characterisation data should preferably be provided as supplementary information (SI) although on occasion it may be appropriate to include some or all of this within the body of the article. This will depend on the nature of the research being reported.

Work that reports new methodology should be applied to existing compounds or materials that have been synthesised by a previous route, to clearly demonstrate how the new method is better than previous procedures.

It is the responsibility of the author(s) to provide the reviewers with the necessary information to evaluate the merit of the manuscript in terms of its scientific content. Failure to provide the necessary experimental evidence and data may result in the manuscript being withdrawn by the editor.

For us, it is not just about publishing work from many countries and having a global presence. We also want to make sure that everyone – including funders, policymakers and the general public – has free, unrestricted access to the research we publish. As a gold open access journal, we champion free knowledge exchange for scientific advancement.
