At Nature Communications we are excited to announce the launch of our new collection on f-block elements. This collection aims at highlighting the relevance of this research field and showcasing the latest work at various levels, ranging from fundamental research to applications of f-block elements. In particular, the collection is divided in the following four sections:

  • Structure and bonding in f-block complexes
  • f-elements in catalysis
  • Materials
  • Electronic and spin properties

All the papers are open access and we hope you enjoy browsing the collection.

Senior Editor, Nature Communications
Joan joined Nature Communications in May 2020. He pursued his PhD in chemistry at University of Girona, where he worked with bioinspired metal complexes for oxygen activation and hydrocarbon oxidation. During that period, he was also a visiting student at University of Minnesota. He continued his research as a Marie S. Curie fellow at University of Basel, where he focused on developing artificial metalloenzymes. He handles manuscripts in the field of inorganic chemistry, including coordination compounds and organometallics, as well as supramolecular chemistry. Joan is based in the Berlin office.
