Announcing a PCCP themed issue on Nano-bio: The interface between bio-systems and nano-devices
Submission Deadline: 06 December 2010
The aim of this issue is to cover the wide range of exciting research which encompasses the boundaries between biology, biophysics and biophysical chemistry on the nanoscale, topics include:
The issue is part of the PCCP biophysics and biophysical chemistry series which will serve to foster links between these research communities and highlight the great work we publish in this area. The series is Guest Edited by Seong Keun Kim (Seoul National University, Korea), Jean-Pierre Schermann (Université Paris 13, France), and Taekjip Ha (University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, USA).
All submissions will be subject to rigorous peer review to meet the usual high standards of PCCP. Work should be accessible to a general physical and biophysical audience and papers should be written with this in mind.
PCCP is delighted to announce that this year it is publishing a series of themed issues in the fields of biophysics and biophysical chemistry to highlight some of the great content we publish in this area.
The series contains issues on a variety of topics in this exciting multidisciplinary research area.

This high-profile series is Guest Edited by PCCP Advisory Board member Seong Keun Kim (Seoul National University, Korea), Jean-Pierre Schermann (Université Paris 13, France), and Taekjip Ha (University of Illinois, USA). The series also contains an issue on molecular mechanisms of the photostability of life Guest Edited by Andrzej Sobolewski and Wolfgang Domcke.
We believe that this series of themed issues will serve to foster links between the biophysics and biophysical chemistry research communities and will have a valuable and lasting impact in this research field.
PCCP is delighted to announce a high-profile themed issue on Molecular Collision Dynamics, which will be Guest Edited by:
. Piergiorgio Casavecchia (University of Perugia, Italy)
. David Nesbitt (JILA/NIST, USA)
. Mark Brouard (University of Oxford, UK)
. Michel Costes (Universite Bordeaux, France)
. Evan Bieske (University of Melbourne, Australia)
. Scott H. Kable (University of Sydney, Australia)
The themed issue will be published in 2011 and will be displayed at a series of international conferences on “Collision Dynamics” in summer 2011 to maximise the visibility of the work published. It is our pleasure to invite you to submit to this themed issue.
Deadline for Submission: 08 November 2010
The study of gas-phase molecular collision dynamics has long proved to be a central and fruitful field of research, with an impact in many areas of science, for both experimental and theoretical physical chemists/chemical physicists. Over the past few years there have been major breakthroughs on studies of reaction and photodissociation dynamics, in gas-phase and beyond, from both the experimental and theoretical points of view. In particular, exciting experimental progress accompanied by significant synergistic advances in theoretical methodologies and computational capabilities have allowed us to compare very detailed experimental observables with the results of exact quantum scattering calculations.
This themed issue is intended to collect contributions from a large number of top scientists in the field throughout the world, both experimentalists and theoreticians, of collision dynamics in the gas-phase (and beyond). As we move into the second decade of the millennium, the goal is to highlight the state-of-the-art and outline the future prospects for the whole exciting area of research of collision dynamics.
Submissions
Submissions should be high quality manuscripts of original, unpublished research. Both Communications and Full Papers can be submitted for consideration.
All submissions will be subject to rigorous peer review to meet the usual high standards of PCCP.
Manuscripts for this PCCP themed issue can be submitted in any reasonable format using our online submissions service. Please indicate upon submission that your manuscript is intended for this themed issue. Submissions before the 8th November deadline are of course also welcome.
