Transcription de la présentation
  1. Soft Matter - where hard science gets soft and squishy Carol Stanier Editor, Soft Matter & Journal of Materials Chemistry

  2. Introduction to soft matter • What? • Where from? • Soft Matter – the journal • Information resources • Importance

  3. What is soft matter? Quantitatively: D~1 Qualitatively: Soft and squishy

  4. What is soft matter? http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1991/index.html • Image from http://www.eu-softcomp.net/

  5. Interdisciplinarity biologists biophysicists organic chemists bioengineers theoretical chemists physicists chemists surface scientists theoretical physicists chemical engineers materials scientists engineers physical chemists

  6. Why a new journal? • 43,000 members • Interest groups • Advancing the chemical sciences

  7. Why a new journal?

  8. RSC member feedback Nowhere to publish on certain areas Some overlap with physics Different disciplines publishing in different places but on the same topics

  9. Why a new journal? • 43,000 members • Interest groups • Advancing the chemical sciences

  10. Soft Matter – from the RSC • Bulk soft matter • • Nanotechnology • • Biological • • Surfaces & interfaces • • Building blocks • • Theory

  11. Soft Matter – from the RSC • Published with • Journal of Materials Chemistry • Free to subscribers of:

  12. Web accesses

  13. Use and citations On water repellencyM. Callies and D. Quéré, Soft Matter, 2005, 1, 55 – 61. Cited 11 times

  14. From our readership…. “I am interested in this journal, which has two specific merits: it promises to give good coverage of chemistry; it is the product of a not-for-profit organization. My hope for the future is that the soft matter communities can be united…..” Professor Pierre-Gilles de Gennes, College de France

  15. From our readership…. You are undertaking a commendable endeavour in launching an interdisciplinary journal at the interface between physics, chemistry, materials science and biological physics.” Dr Christos Likos, University of Düsseldorf, Germany

  16. From our readership…. • “A journal in this field has been missing.” • Professor Ulrich Wiesner, • Cornell University, USA

  17. Information resources • Journals • Books • Societies & Networks

  18. Resources - journals No other single journal combines all aspects of Soft Matter

  19. Resources - books

  20. Resources - societies

  21. Conferences • ACS • MRS • International Soft Matter Conference 2007 • Nanoparticles: New Opportunities and Challenges for Colloid Scientists • SoftNano

  22. Significance of Soft Matter • Interdisciplinarity • Home for community • Top academics • Not-for-profit publisher

  23. Significance of Soft Matter • Speed • Color

  24. Soft Matter goes solo • Tested • Community accepted • Evidence • Package A and A+
