ChemistrySelect is the latest journal from ChemPubSoc Europe, an organization of 16 continental European chemical societies, and complements the existing titles published in collaboration with Wiley-VCH. The steady increase in submissions to the top titles is forcing them to become increasingly selective, and as such, often good research articles are failing to find a home within the ChemPubSoc Europe family of journals. To fill this considerable need, ChemPubSoc Europe decided to launch ChemistrySelect. A sister journal to Chemistry—A European Journal, ChemPlusChem and ChemistryOpen, ChemistrySelect offers researchers around the world a quality society-owned journal in which to publish their work.

Intended to cover, in the broadest sense, all areas of chemistry and adjacent fields, ChemistrySelect offers authors diverse scope and broad dissemination of their latest research. ChemistrySelect publishes Reviews, Full Papers and Communications covering all areas of the chemical sciences, from biochemistry and chemical biology, through to physical chemistry and materials sciences.

Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems publishes original research papers, short communications, reviews, tutorials and software descriptions reporting on novel developments in techniques for chemistry and related disciplines that are characterised by the application of statistical and computer methods.Chemometrics is the chemical discipline that uses mathematical and statistical methods to design or select optimal procedures and experiments, and to provide maximum chemical information by analysing chemical data.The journal deals with the following topics:1) Development of new statistical, mathematical and chemometrical methods for Chemistry and related fields (Environmental Chemistry, Biochemistry, Toxicology, System Biology etc.)2) Novel applications of chemometrics to all branches of Chemistry and related fields (typical domains of interest are: process control, experimental design, data mining, signal processing, supervised modelling, decision making, robust statistics, mixture analysis, multivariate calibration etc.) Routine applications of established chemometrical techniques will not be considered.3) Development of new software4) Well characterized data sets to test performance for the new methods and software.The journal complies with International Committee of Medical Journal Editors' Uniform requirements for manuscripts.

Chemosensors (ISSN 2227-9040) provides an advanced forum for the science and technology of chemical sensors. It publishes reviews, regular research papers and communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. All aspects of chemosensing are welcomed from theoretical concepts to education and training. We also welcome manuscripts on classic chemical sensing – be it wet chemistry or biological sensing using enzymes or cells and other model organisms. Drug testing and medical/diagnostic testing are also included under this umbrella. We welcome results of field testing or assay validation as well, whether it be at the research level or from commercial pretesting. We also ask for perspectives from people working in the field or editorials that concern prominent issues related to chemosensing. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. There are, in addition, several unique features of this journal: Manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
