You may have noticed over the past year the LCGC International editorial team has been writing more news on www.chromatographyonline.com. There is an important reason for this.
Scientists, particularly in academia, are facing immense pressure to publish their work. In 2016, about 1.92 million papers were indexed by Scopus and the Web of Science, according to data from Science. In 2022, that number grew to 2.82 million.
All of this has contributed to an increased demand for news coverage. Our goal is to parse through the noise and identify only the most relevant research.
How exactly are we doing this? Our staff editors are constantly reviewing the latest research, media releases, and journal articles. We’re talking to scientists and engineers, executives, and business leaders. We also have an incredibly dedicated Editorial Advisory Board and a team of phenomenal columnists.
Send an email to Caroline Hroncich, Associate Editorial Director of LCGC International at chroncich@mjhlifesciences.com and let me know what you think.
