The Global Reach of ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering and Welcoming Lina Zhang
■
ith the March 2017 issue of ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, we welcome Professor Lina Zhang of Wuhan University and the Chinese Academy of Science as a new Associate Editor. This brings our team of Associate Editors to nine, with three from Asia, four from the United States and Canada, and two from the United Kingdom and Western Europe. These Associate Editors provide us with a wide range of expertise, from catalysis and nanomaterials to ionic liquids and biomaterials synthesis and processing. Dr. Zhang adds expertise in the area of natural polymers and cellulose and chitin-derived materials. We have also seen growth in our Editorial Advisory Board (EAB), which now includes 34 chemists and engineers working in 13 countries (11 from Asia, 14 from the United States and Canada, 7 from the United Kingdom and Western Europe, and 2 from the rest of the world). We appointed 13 new EAB members this year. They are Gregg Beckham (National Renewable Energy Laboratory), Jun Chen (Nankai University), Alain Dufresne (Grenoble INP − Pagora), Atsushi Fukuoka (Hokkaido University), Jinlong Gong (Tianjin University), Mark Harmer (SAC Tech, SustainAble Chemistry Consulting), Anil Kumar (IIT Bombay), Amy E. Landis (Clemson University), Andrea Iris Schäfer (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), Katharina Schröder (Technische Universität Wien), Helen Sneddon (GlaxoSmithKline), Karine Vigier de Oliveira (Université de Poitiers), and Nanfeng Zheng (Xiamen University). We thank our EAB members who have completed their term of service, having served the journal since its launch in 2013. They are Ramon Alvarez, Berkeley Cue, David Dzombak, István Horváth, Gilbert Jersey, Philip Jessop, Shu̅ Kobayashi, Douglas MacFarlane, Donald Paul, and Robert Peoples. Finally, we have created an Early Career Board (ECB),1 which augments the EAB. During their two year terms of service, ECB members will help identify special issue topics and expand the journal’s presence in the community at conferences and via social media. The inaugural Early Career Board members are Jonas Baltrusaitis (Lehigh University), Richard Bourne (University of Leeds), Emily Cranston (McMaster University), Paul Dauenhauer (University of Minnesota), Subi George (Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research), Meagan Mauter (Carnegie Mellon University), Kana M. Sureshan (IISER Thiruvananthapuram), Małgorzata (Gosia) Swadźba-Kwaśny (Queen’s University Belfast), JeanPhilippe Tessonnier (Iowa State University), Ning Yan (National University of Singapore), and Fengqi You (Cornell University). Our entire editorial team looks forward to serving the expanding green chemistry and green engineering communities.
