Sara Skrabalak, the James H. Rudy Professor of Chemistry, has just been named editor-in-chief of two of the most prestigious scientific journals in her field: Chemistry of Materials, and its younger offshoot, the year-old ACS Materials Letters.
“Chemistry of Materials is a journal that I grew up on, scientifically speaking,” says Skrabalak, a Pennsylvania native who joined the IU faculty in 2008. “I remember reading it as an undergrad. It’s a tremendous honor to now be its editor-in-chief.”
