Prof. Gabor Somorjai, one of the founding editors of Catalysis Letters and Topics in Catalysis journals has passed away earlier this year at the age of 90.

Professor Somorjai’s legacy was shaping catalysis research around the world and it lives on through the vibrant community he helped build and the countless researchers he inspired.

To honor his contributions and work, we have compiled an online collection consisting of his works published in Catalysis Letters over the years.

The collection also features an editorial written by his colleagues, friends and co-workers, discussing his extraordinary life story and work in different parts.

Check the editorial and details of full collection here.
