Introducing the ‘Sustainable Development Goal 3: Good Health and Wellbeing’ ongoing collection, featuring papers across RSC Applied Polymers and RSC Applied Interfaces

RSC Applied Polymers and RSC Applied Interfaces are pleased to announce the launch of a new series of themed collections in support of the Global Sustainable Development Goals initiated by the United Nations.

These collections highlight the current research taking place by scientists across the globe which demonstrates the ways in which chemical science is helping to make the world a better place.

RSC Applied Polymers and RSC Applied Interfaces are delighted to share the new collection centred around:

Sustainable Development Goal 3: Good Health and Wellbeing

This Sustainable Development Goal collection focuses on Sustainable Development Goal 3: good health and well-being, with articles that explore procedures, practices and technology in modern medicine which can help address the growing concerns for world health and ensure sustainable and affordable future health outcomes for everyone.

Don’t forget that RSC Applied Polymers and RSC Applied Interfaces are both Gold open access journals, that means all our articles are free to read, including our new Sustainable Development Goals collections! The highly applied and interdisciplinary work included in these collections serve as a perfect example of the kind of papers we would like to see more of in RSC Applied Interfaces and RSC Applied Polymers.


Take a look at some of the articles featured in the collection:
