欧美AV

Established in 2010, this international lectureship honours early-career scientists. The Journal of Materials Chemistry lectureship is open to researchers worldwide who have made significant contributions to the field of materials chemistry. This includes, but is not limited to, members of the 欧美AV and researchers in academia or industry.

• Nominators can be, for example, colleagues, collaborators, and mentors
• The reputation, seniority, or prominence of nominators is not considered by the judging panel
• Self-nomination is not permitted
• All documents must be submitted by the nominator

We believe we have a responsibility to promote inclusivity and accessibility to improve diversity. Where possible, we encourage each nominator to consider nominating candidates of all genders, races, and backgrounds.

Eligibility

To be eligible for the Journal of Materials Chemistry Lectureship, the candidate must:

• not have been a previous recipient of this lectureship
• have completed their PhD
• be actively pursuing an independent research career within materials chemistry
• be at an early stage of their independent career (typically this will be within 10 years of completing their PhD OR within the first five years of their independent career, but appropriate consideration will be given to those who have taken a career break, for example for childcare leave, or followed a different study path). The Editorial Office will respond rapidly to any eligibility queries
• have made significant contributions to the field of materials chemistry

Nominations are closed.

The process to nominate a candidate, when nominations next open, will normally be:

• a completed nomination form sent via email
• a brief C.V. of the candidate (one page maximum)
• a supporting letter of recommendation from the nominator (one page maximum)
• an additional supporting letter of recommendation from a referee who can comment in detail on specific contributions, achievements or potential of a nominee – this could be, for example, the nominee’s post-doc or PhD supervisor, or academic mentor.
• three recent publications representative of the nominee’s research output

Citation of community service

We define community service as any voluntary work that the candidate has taken part in that has benefitted at least one other member of the materials chemistry community.

The nominator may consider including the following information in the citation of community service:

• Details of how the nominee has made a personal impact and stands out through volunteering for the materials chemistry community
• Details of how the nominee personally contributed to the implementation and outcomes of the community service activity
• Details of how the nominee engaged others in their community service activities
• Details of the impact on the community of their activities
• Details of how the nominee promoted a positive work-life balance
• Examples of service to the materials chemistry community might include, but are not limited to, education, public outreach, research advocacy, leadership and mentoring

Equal consideration is given to research achievements and service to the materials chemistry community. Consideration is given to all information provided in the nomination, in particular the community service citation, candidate C.V. and three research papers. In addition to the core criteria listed above, publishing engagement in the journal family is encouraged.

Nominations are first longlisted by a panel of Advisory board members and then further shortlisted by Editorial Board members of the three JMCs. The winner is selected from the final shortlist by the Journal of Materials Chemistry Editors-in-Chief and the Executive Editor.

If Editorial and Advisory Board members nominate or support a candidate, they cannot vote on or discuss this candidate during the assessment process. The Editors-in-Chief and Executive Editor do not make any nominations.
