On behalf of the ChemComm Editorial Board, I am delighted to welcome Professor Antonio Echavarren as the new ChemComm Associate Editor for organic chemistry and catalysis.
Professor Echavarren is Group Leader at the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia (ICIQ) in Tarragona, Spain. His research focuses on developing new catalytic methods based on the organometallic chemistry of transition metals as well as synthesing natural products and polyarenes.
Professor Echavarren’s editorial office is now open for submissions, welcoming urgent communications highlighting the latest advances in organic chemistry and catalysis.
