Just Accepted, Most Read, and New Faces Chemistry of Materials is very pleased to announce the arrival of two new additions to the editorial staff of the journal: Kyoung-Shin Choi, Associate Editor.
eaders find papers many different ways, through databases such as Google Scholar, the ACS search engine and table of contents, Web of Science and SciFinder, Twitter feeds, and others. To avoid the lag waiting for a paper to be paginated and picked up by a non-ACS database, come straight to our website to check out the Just Accepted papersliterally within minutes, upon acceptance of the manuscript, the submitted and accepted PDF version appears online. As can be seen from the screenshot in Figure 1, the Just Accepted link on the website is easy to find. Another useful feature on our website is the Most Read list, which shows the most highly downloaded papers from the previous month and past 12 months. This list can be surprising, as is the case for the month of February. Third on the list is a review on battery electrode materials from 2010, demonstrating the timeliness and longevity of this particular paper by Linda Nazar and co-workers.1

Chemistry of Materials
Editorial
Kyoung-Shin has just started as an Associate Editor at Chemistry of Materials. Kyoung-Shin is a full professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Kyoung-Shin has a strong background in materials for energy applications, synthesis of nanomaterials, electrochemistry, and solid state chemistry. As a recent example of her work, she demonstrated how the use of dual oxygen evolution catalysts on a high surface area, light absorbing semiconductor material (BiVO4) markedly increased the performance of the system to oxidize water to produce O2 (g).2 Carlos Toro, Managing Editor.
Carlos started in late February as the Managing Editor of Chemistry of Materials. Carlos most recently held the position of Ellen D. Williams Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Maryland, where he worked with John Fourkas, Senior Editor of the Journal of Physical Chemistry. He completed his Ph.D. at the University of Central Florida in Chemistry (Materials Science track) with Florencio Hernandez. Carlos’ research experience ranges from spectroscopy of molecular materials and plasmonics to computational materials chemistry, so he brings a very strong materials chemistry repertoire to the journal. Carlos is going to contribute to many aspects of day-to-day operations but also to social media and media relations to help publicize our top papers. As always, we would like to hear from you. Follow us on Twitter (@ChemMater), and e-mail us with your suggestions or comments.
