Bioinspired, Biomimetic and Nanobiomaterials is pleased to announce the creation of an Early Career Reviewer Board.
About the journal
Bioinspired, Biomimetic and Nanobiomaterials publishes peer-reviewed papers within the area of biological materials science and engineering. The technological significance of this area is immense for applications as diverse as tissue engineering and drug delivery biosystems to biomimicked sensors and optical devices. Bioinspired, Biomimetic and Nanobiomaterials provides a unique scholarly forum for discussion and reporting of structure-sensitive functional properties of nature inspired materials.
Bioinspired, Biomimetic and Nanobiomaterials invites submission of articles presenting original research related to:
- Structures, properties or functions of biological materials that have a perspective to inspire novel synthetic functional materials.
- Structure-property-function relationships of synthetic materials that are inspired by or mimick biological role models including organisms, their materials, structures, functions or biological processes.
- Nanobiomaterials inspired by or mimicking biological role models including supramolecular structures, particulate materials and functional material systems intended for medical applications.
The role of the Early Career Reviewer
BIBN decided to develop an Early Career Reviewer Board (ECRB) to give Early Career Researchers the means to participate within a journal publishing environment and to be involved in developing the journal for the community along with the Editor, Associate Editors and Editorial Board Members.
Selected applicants will be appointed to the ECRB for 2 years, after which there may be the opportunity to be appointed to the Editorial Board in consultation with the Editor-in-Chief. Each successful member will be expected to review 3 to 4 new papers per year. Guidance will be provided for the journal’s submission system, ReView.
Applications
Please email the Commissioning Editor, Alessandra Morelli ([email protected]) with a statement (no more than 400 words) on why you would like to work on BIBN and what you can bring to the journal, along with a copy of a two-page CV. Please use 'BIBN ECRB - Applicant name' in your subject line.
Please do also include the following in your application:
- Mention of your primary areas of research and/or professional expertise
- LinkedIn account (if applicable)
- Google Scholar (if applicable)
- ORCID ID
Early Career Researchers are those who have up to five years since they earned their doctoral degree (excluding career breaks).
