Upon submission, the proposal will be reviewed by the Editors for suitability and fit, and if appropriate, an invitation to submit the full paper will be extended. Proposal forms should be submitted via Editorial Manager, and authors should select "Proposal" as the article type. Unsolicited manuscripts submitted without a proposal form will not be considered.- ISSN: 0079-6700

Device
Device, a sister journal to Cell, is a monthly journal encompassing the applied research needed to make groundbreaking fundamental research into tomorrow's cutting-edge technology. The disciplines and expertise needed to build devices that positively impact human lives are diverse, and as such, Device will publish research in applied physics, computer science, chemistry, biology, engineering, and more as it applies to driving integrated, purpose-driven applications. Examples of topical areas of interest to the journal include but are by no means limited to:Water purificationEnergy harvesting and storageBiomedical devicesQuantum computers and photonic devices2D devices and materialsDevices meant for extreme and/or cryogenic conditionsHigh-perfo... and capacity memoryNanomaterialsS... devicesHeterogeneous devicesLaboratory robotics and automationArtificial intelligence and machine learning models relevant to applied researchComputationa... physics and modeling as related to device developmentInternet of Things devicesFlexible and wearable electronicsA key focus is on the integration of materials and concepts at multiple levels across the device-development pipeline. Inventing a new material is only part of the work required to implement it in a practically useful setting, much like an electrolyte that performs best under vacuum in initial studies may not be the ideal structure once real-world conditions are required. This is to say that Device will prioritize the form as well as the function of the advances considered in submitted research.Device highlights real-world implications of the research published where appropriate. Authors are encouraged to highlight and amplify the implications, challenges, and opportunities of their work across the entire field and beyond. Device will purposefully explore the sustainability, accessibility, ethics, and socioeconomic implications of device research throughout the entire journal.Device provides full-length research articles, reviews, topical perspectives, paper previews, opinions, research-team highlights, and other editorial content of general interest to the global device research community. Additionally, Device enthusiastically supports the submission and citation of reproduction files, such as .stl files used by 3D printers. The journal aims to be the premier resource for researchers in both academia and industry, providing a platform of inspiration for the next generation of device researchers.- ISSN: 2666-9986

Reactive and Functional Polymers
An International Journal devoted to their Science and TechnologyReactive & Functional Polymers provides a forum to disseminate original ideas, concepts and developments in the science and technology of polymers with functional groups, which impart specific chemical reactivity or physical, chemical, structural, biological, and pharmacological functionality. The scope covers organic polymers, acting for instance as reagents, catalysts, templates, ion-exchangers, selective sorbents, chelating or antimicrobial agents, drug carriers, sensors, membranes, and hydrogels. This also includes reactive cross-linkable prepolymers and high-performance thermosetting polymers, natural or degradable polymers, conducting polymers, and porous polymers.Original research articles must contain thorough molecular and material characterization data on synthesis of the above polymers in combination with their applications. Applications include but are not limited to catalysis, water or effluent treatment, separations and recovery, electronics and information storage, energy conversion, encapsulation, or adhesion.Full-length papers, perspectives and review articles will be considered. We welcome cutting-edge, original research within our scope. Modelling and simulation work will be considered only when linked to new or previously published experimental results. Lack of originality and novelty, insufficient molecular characterisation, or poor comparison with the current state of the art are reasons for rejection.- ISSN: 1381-5148
