Nanoscale Horizons Emerging Investigator Series – Shalini Singh

Nanoscale Horizons Emerging Investigator Series

Congratulations to our latest Emerging Investigator Dr Shalini Singh (University of Limerick, Ireland)!

Since the launch of Nanoscale Horizons, the journal has had a clear vision to publish exceptionally high-quality work whilst acting as a resource to researchers working at all career levels. We continue to be impressed by the quality of the research published and at the same time are looking for new ways of recognising and promoting the outstanding authors behind articles published in the journal.

Last year we launched an Emerging Investigator Series to showcase the exceptional work published by early-career researchers in the journal. We will regularly select a recently published Communication article and publish an interview-style Editorial article featuring the corresponding author. We hope that the series will also benefit the nanoscience community by highlighting the exciting work being done by its early-career members.

We are excited to share our latest Emerging Investigator, Dr Shalini Singh (University of Limerick, Ireland)!
