The American Chemical Society (ACS) has named a new deputy editor of the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, a premier physical chemistry journal publishing original scientific advances in physical chemistry, chemical physics and materials science. Dr. Gregory Scholes of Princeton University will officially succeed Dr. Prashant Kamat, who served as the deputy editor of the journal since its inception in 2010. Kamat has stepped down from the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters to take on the role of editor-in-chief of ACS Energy Letters.
Scholes, who is the William S. Tod Professor of Chemistry at Princeton University and a senior fellow at the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research, has made a significant impact in the fields of physical chemistry, materials science and biophysics. Scholes has served as a senior editor for the Journal of Physical Chemistry since 2009 and the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters since 2011. He also serves as an Editorial Advisory Board member for a number of journals.
The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters complements the Journal of Physical Chemistry A, B and C by offering readers a single source for the most urgent research results in all areas of physical chemistry. Led by Editor-in-Chief George C. Schatz, the online-only, peer-reviewed journal publishes articles within four to six weeks of acceptance and received a 2014 Impact Factor of 7.458.
