Materials Horizons Editorial Board Update

Welcoming Joshua Goldberger as a Scientific Editor

Joshua Goldberger

Joshua Goldberger is a professor at The Ohio State University. He received his Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of California at Berkeley in 2006, as an NSF graduate fellow, focusing on the synthesis, properties and applications of inorganic nanowire and nanotube materials. He then did his postdoctoral research at Northwestern University as part of the Institute for BioNanotechnology in Medicine, as an NIH-NRSA postdoctoral fellow (2007-2010). He joined The Ohio State University’s Chemistry and Biochemistry Department in August of 2010, and was promoted to Associate Professor in 2016, Professor in 2020, and the Charles H. Kimberly Professorship in 2022. His research interests broadly focus on the design and development of next generation electronic, magnetic, thermal, catalytic and quantum materials. His lab combines solid-state chemistry, synthetic organic and inorganic techniques, with insight and property measurements from the condensed-matter physics, materials science, and electronics communities. He has received many awards, including an IUPAC Prize for Young Chemists in 2007, a Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award in 2015, a Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Award from the Humboldt foundation in 2022 and was elected to the AAAS in 2022.

What are you most looking forward to in this role?

“I’m very excited to join the Materials Horizons Editorial Team as a Scientific Editor and to build on the journal’s strong momentum while helping maintain its status as a premier venue for innovative ideas and fundamental advances in materials research. Materials Horizons has become a home for bold concepts and emerging directions in the field, and I’m thrilled to contribute to that mission.

As an inorganic solid-state chemist with broad interests that span multiple disciplines and research communities, I’m particularly looking forward to engaging with the creative work being carried out across the interdisciplinary materials landscape. The opportunity to learn about, support, and help highlight exciting new fundamental discoveries and concept-driven advances in hard matter, is especially motivating.

I’m also excited to work with authors, reviewers, and fellow editors to foster Materials Horizons as a dynamic platform for the materials community, to bring forward ideas that inspire new thinking and push the boundaries of the field.”

Welcoming Teck Leong Tan as a Scientific Editor

 Teck Leong Tan

Dr Teck Leong Tan is a Senior Principal Scientist at the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore, and Director of the Multiscale Science Department at the Institute of High Performance Computing (IHPC). He is also an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the National University of Singapore. His work focuses on multiscale simulation and modelling, spanning atomistic to macroscopic length and time scales, to support materials and process development for sustainable industrial applications, including decarbonisation and green chemistry. His recent research involves integrating computational and experimental data with machine-learning approaches to develop Data-AI-Computation frameworks that improve the efficiency of physics-based simulations through surrogate and generative models. These methods are applied to the study and design of complex materials systems in collaboration with experimental partners. Dr Tan obtained his PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, with a specialisation in Computer Science and Engineering, and joined A*STAR in 2011. His research interests are in Materials AI, with applications in catalysis, aerospace materials, nanoscale technologies, electronics, corrosion science, and sustainability.

What are you most looking forward to in this role?

“I look forward to contributing to by helping shape and highlight high-quality, forward-looking research at the intersection of materials science, computation, and AI. In particular, I am excited to support work that combines physical insight with data-driven approaches, and that advances sustainable materials discovery through close integration of theory, modelling, and experiment.”
