Journal updates

The 22nd international Sol-Gel conference will be held in Berlin (Germany) at the Langenbeck Virchow Haus, 1-6 September 2024. 

Many of us approach decadal birthdays - and particularly our 30th birthday - with a sense of reluctance and a tinge of sadness, thinking that some of the best years of our life are now behind us. In the case of a journal such as the Journal of Sol-Gel Science and Technology, the opposite is true! As we approach the 30th birthday of JSST in 2023, it is timely to look back at the origins and history of JSST, together with some of the current and future initiatives being developed by JSST’s Editors.

JSST will explore the development and launch of the Topical Collections (TC) series, in which leading practitioners spread across the internal sol-gel community would be invited to contribute papers (either review articles or original work) to a series of thematic Special Issues addressing selected topics.

Featuring fascinating and visually striking molecules taken from recent publications.

Every month, we'll feature an interesting and visually striking micrograph taken from a recent publication.
