Journal celebrates milestone with interview of School researcher Dalton Transactions are celebrating the 50th volume of by taking a look at some of our authors who have published over 50 articles in the journal. Their first highlighted author is Professor Euan Brechin. Professor Brechin was chosen after publishing more than 50 articles in the journal during his career. Speaking about Dalton Transactions, Professor Brechin had the following to say: What advice do you have for young researchers new to your field? Do the science you really want to do, the science that really excites you regardless of how niche you, or anybody else, may think it is. I think everyone does their best work when they love what they are doing. Papers and funding will follow. Stay positive, and don’t get disheartened when you get rejections. It happens to all of us all the time. The one in a hundred acceptance letter makes you forget the rejections. What does Dalton Transactions mean to you? As a UK scientist, RSC journals are always my first choice for publishing. Perhaps that’s a little sentimental but I think there should be a strong connection/bond between a national society and its scientists. That sense of community is undervalued, but I think it’s important and I hope it’s never lost. Professor Euan Brechin This article was published on 2024-03-19
