Dr. Rowan is the Executive Editor of the Physical & Sustainability portfolio, which includes Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP), Green Chemistry, and Faraday Discussions. Michael studied chemistry at the University of East Anglia and completed his MChem in 2002. He earned his PhD studying the design and synthesis of transition metal catalysts under the supervision of Prof. Carl Redshaw (now at the University of Hull).

He started his publishing career in 2006, working as an Assistant Editor for Chemistry—A European Journal and, after serving as Editor-in-Chief of the catalysis journal ChemCatChem for nearly 10 years (Wiley-VCH), he joined the ·¬ºÅ¿âapp in 2022. With nearly 20 years of editorial experience, Michael continues to serve the chemistry research community to the best of his ability.

Professor Akhila K. Sahoo completed his doctoral study at the CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory, Pune under the supervision of Prof. Ganesh Pandey in 2001.

He worked as a postdoc researcher at the RWTH-Aachen-Germany with Prof. Hans-Joachim Gais (2002), Prof. Tamejiro Hiyama, Kyoto University, Japan (JSPS; 2002-2004), and finally with Prof. Atsuhiro Osuka, Kyoto University (2004-2006). He then worked as a scientist at the Sai Advantium Pharma Limited (2006-2007), Hyderabad. He then joined the School of Chemistry at the University of Hyderabad, currently he is working as a professor. His research interest revolves in the development of novel transformations on metal-catalyzed C-H activation, Au-catalyzed synthetic methods, and construction of strained N, and O-rich energetic materials. He is a Member of the ·¬ºÅ¿âapp and Member of the National Academy of Science, India and an associate editor of NJC.

Professor Asim Bhaumik received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory, Pune, India in 1997. After completing his Ph.D. degree he moved to The University of Tokyo, Japan as a JSPS Post-Doctoral Fellow from 1997-1999. Then during 1999-2001 he was an Associate Researcher at Toyota Central R & D Labs., Inc. Nagoya, Japan.

After that, he joined the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science, Kolkata, India, where he is currently working as a Senior Professor. He has published over 525 original research articles and 16 patents with over 28000 citations. He is a Fellow of the ·¬ºÅ¿âapp (F·¬ºÅ¿âapp). His research interests are: exploring novel organic, inorganic and organic-inorganic hybrid porous materials for the energy and environmental applications, developing heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 fixation reactions into fuels and fine chemicals, and green hydrogen. Professor Bhaumik is an associate editor of Green Chemistry.

Dr. Lijina is an Assistant Editorial Development Manager at the ·¬ºÅ¿âapp. As part of her role, she works across various disciplines and societies of chemical sciences and support the journals. Lijina completed her integrated PhD in chemistry from the Indian institute of Science Education and Research Thiruvananthapuram and subsequently she joined ·¬ºÅ¿âapp.
