OUR EDITORS
What Our Editors Say About Us
"It is satisfying to work with fellow scientists in the publication process. Editors are thoughtful, knowledgeable, and supportive. The ACS framework also has a huge impact. For instance, there are many initiatives to promote our science and to highlight interesting topics—enabling us to navigate the literature. One thing that strikes me every time I publish in an ACS journal is how remarkably quick the post-decision process is; I am stunned by the rapid production of article proofs and subsequent steps. It is this that first comes to mind when I consider where to publish a new manuscript."
