Why a new journal?

RSC member feedback Nowhere to publish on certain areas Some overlap with physics Different disciplines publishing in different places but on the same topics

Use and citations On water repellency M. Callies and D. Quéré, Soft Matter, 2005, 1, 55 – 61. Cited 11 times

From our readership…. “I am interested in this journal, which has two specific merits: it promises to give good coverage of chemistry; it is the product of a not-for-profit organization. My hope for the future is that the soft matter communities can be united…..” Professor Pierre-Gilles de Gennes, College de France

From our readership…. You are undertaking a commendable endeavour in launching an interdisciplinary journal at the interface between physics, chemistry, materials science and biological physics.” Dr Christos Likos, University of Düsseldorf, Germany

From our readership…. “A journal in this field has been missing.” Professor Ulrich Wiesner, Cornell University, USA
