Dalton Transactions celebrates the publication of its 40th volume in 2011! Since its first issue was published in 1972, Dalton Transactions has gone from strength to strength with growth in published articles of 122% over the last five years alone and an impact factor now at 4.1 – above 4 for the first time!
During 2011 we have lots of exciting events planned to celebrate…..look out for our special 40th Anniversary issue which will feature articles by Editorial and Advisory Board members ‘old and new ‘ and also our Anniversary Perspective articles from our Editorial Board member.
We will also publish a series of Anniversary Editorials compiled by members of the inorganic and organometallic community charting Dalton Transactions‘ progress in the last 40 years. In addition, many more activities are planned so keep your eyes peeled here on the Dalton Transactions Blog 40th Anniversary Category for more info throughout the year. I would like to invite everyone to provide us with your suggestions for how to celebrate the journal’s anniversary – if you have an idea, why not post it as a comment on the blog?
In anticipation of the beginning of our Anniversary year we have turned to Top of the Pops for inspiration and the Top 40 cited Dalton Transactions articles according to ISI* will be FREE to read until the end of January 2011. What are they you may ask….let the countdown begin…
