Change has been an ever present aspect of 2020 so far. This year has also seen considerable change at ACS Sensors. As you know, the journal has been expanding as you and your colleagues submit more and more papers to us. In recognition of this growth, ACS has allowed us to appoint more editors. The choice of which editor to appoint is made by me, in consultation with the editorial team as well as the ACS. One of the great things about publishing in ACS journals is that decisions are made by active researchers like yourself. This also means your paper is being edited by a busy person. So, we are looking for people who feel that being an editor is an important service to the community, and will therefore place editing at a high enough priority in their workload to not let the authors down. At ACS Sensors, we are also looking for diversity in our editorial team in terms of subject area, gender, culture, and geography. We feel that diversity in thinking accelerates scientific advancement, and diversity of thinking is influenced by every aspect of one’s life. Finally, at ACS Sensors, we strive for publications that cover novel developments in sensors, which have the potential to work in the complex, uncontrolled environments suitable for their intended application. So, we need editors who not only understand innovative research, but also have the practical understanding required to assess these developments. In the life of ACS Sensors, as editor-in-chief, my job has been made so much easier by being fortunate enough to have an incredibly talented team of Associate Editors. In fact, at any time we have sought to add an editor in a given subject area, I have just thought: who are the people in this area I most admire and would enjoy working with? I feel very lucky that, in every case, one of those people has always agreed to join our team. In 2020, we have had three new additions to the team, following the arrival of Heather Clark and Lanqun Mao last year (DOI:10.1021/acssensors.9b01166). First, in the beginning of March, we welcomed Roya Maboudian from the University of California, Berkeley. Roya is a Professor of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, and Co-Director of Berkeley Sensor & Actuator Center. Roya, who has a Ph.D. from CalTech in applied physics, has a very broad range of skills ranging from materials, interfacial phenomena, electrochemistry, and nanostructures and self-assembly. Her research is focused on making both fundamental and applied advances in micro/nanosystems technology, sensing, energy, and biomimetics. For ACS Sensors, she will be our main gas sensor editor, but will also handle papers on wearable sensors, industrial process monitoring, and device integration. The second new editor, who started at the end of May, is Professor Jean-Francois Masson from Department of Chemistry, Université de Montréal, Montréal, Canada. JF, who has a Ph.D. from Arizona State University, has a strong focus in his research in optical biosensing, especially with regard to plasmonics. His research has a distinct emphasis on surface chemistry and developing portable instrumentation, both of which are so important for refractive index sensors. JF will handle papers on optical sensors, machine learning, surface modification and clinical applications. The final new editor started just recently in mid-June. This is Andrew De Mello, a Professor of Biochemical Engineering in the Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences at ETH Zurich. Andrew, who has a Ph.D. from Imperial College London, is a world leader in microfluidic technology, and has interests in advances in synthetic processing, droplet-based microfluidics, ultrahigh sensitivity detection in small volumes, and systems for point-of-care diagnostics. For ACS Sensors, Andrew will handle a lot of the microfluidic and lab-on-a-chip papers as well as some papers on optical assays and devices. I can say on behalf of the editorial team we are absolutely delighted that Roya, JF, and Andrew have joined us. I would like you all to join us in welcoming them. However, they are not the only changes to the editorial team at ACS Sensors. We, unfortunately, had to say goodbye to our Managing Editor Antonella (Nella) Mazur as she was promoted, and now oversees the journal from above. Nella was one of the people who pitched for the foundation of the journal, so she is as responsible as anyone for the success of ACS Sensors. We are super proud that she is so valued by ACS Publications to be promoted. Nella of course looked after the journal well to the very end of her term, including making sure Nicole Camasso was recruited as our new Managing Editor. Nicole has a stellar publication record herself, but preferred a move toward science publishing. We welcome Nicole who has already had a terrific impact on the journal. I want to emphasize that, at ACS Sensors, we are committed to diversity because, as I said above, diversity of background contributes to the diversity of viewpoints, which then lead to innovative scientific advances. We are aware that the additions to our editorial team this year are all based in North America and Europe. We are not sure when we will add more editors, but rest assured that the next editors we recruit will include researchers from Asia, South America, or Africa. Views expressed in this editorial are those of the author and not necessarily the views of the ACS. This article has not yet been cited by other publications.

ACS Sensors编辑团队的变更。

到目前为止，变化一直是2020年的一个当前方面。今年ACS Sensors也发生了巨大变化。如您所知，随着您和您的同事向我们提交越来越多的论文，该期刊正在不断扩大。认识到这种增长，ACS允许我们任命更多的编辑。由我与编辑团队以及ACS协商后，确定要任命的编辑。在ACS期刊上发表文章的一大优点是，决策是由像您这样的活跃研究人员做出的。这也意味着您的论文正在由忙碌的人进行编辑。因此，我们正在寻找这样的人，他们认为编辑是对社区的一项重要服务，因此会将编辑工作放在工作量的最高优先位置，以免让作者失望。在ACS传感器，我们也在寻求编辑团队在主题领域，性别，文化和地理方面的多样性。我们认为，思维的多样性加速了科学的发展，思维的多样性受到生活各个方面的影响。最后，在ACS传感器部，我们努力争取出版一些涉及传感器新发展的出版物，这些出版物有可能在适合其预期应用的复杂，不受控制的环境中工作。因此，我们需要编辑人员，他们不仅要了解创新研究，而且还要具备评估这些进展所需的实践知识。ACS传感器的使用寿命作为总编辑，我的工作变得如此轻松，因为幸运的是，有了一支非常有才华的副编辑团队。实际上，在任何时候我们都试图在给定的主题领域中添加一名编辑，我只是​​想：我最欣赏并愿意与之合作的那个领域的人是谁？我感到非常幸运，在任何情况下，其中一个人始终同意加入我们的团队。去年，希瑟·克拉克（Heather Clark）和兰昆·毛（Lanqun Mao）到来之后，我们在2020年为团队增加了三名新成员（DOI：10.1021 / acssensors.9b01166）。首先，在3月初，我们欢迎来自加州大学伯克利分校的Roya Maboudian。Roya是化学与生物分子工程学教授，也是伯克利传感器与执行器中心的联合主任。Roya，拥有博士学位 来自加州理工学院的应用物理学专业，拥有非常广泛的技能，涉及材料，界面现象，电化学，纳米结构和自组装。她的研究重点是在微/纳米系统技术，传感，能量和仿生学方面取得基础和应用方面的进步。对于ACS传感器，她将是我们的主要气体传感器编辑器，但还将处理有关可穿戴传感器，工业过程监控和设备集成的论文。第二位新编辑是5月底开始的，是加拿大蒙特利尔大学蒙特利尔大学化学系的Jean-Francois Masson教授。JF，拥有博士学位 来自亚利桑那州立大学的他在光学生物传感方面的研究特别着重于等离子激元研究。他的研究特别关注表面化学和便携式仪器的开发，这两者对于折射率传感器都非常重要。JF将处理有关光学传感器，机器学习，表面改性和临床应用的论文。最终的新编辑是6月中旬开始的。这是安德鲁·德梅洛，苏黎世联邦理工学院化学与应用生物科学系生物化学工程教授。拥有博士学位的安德鲁（Andrew）来自伦敦帝国学院的微流控技术是世界领先的，对合成工艺，基于液滴的微流控技术，小体积超高灵敏度检测以及即时诊断系统具有浓厚的兴趣。对于ACS传感器公司（Andrew ACS Sensors）将处理许多微流体和芯片实验室论文，以及一些有关光学检测和设备的论文。我可以代表编辑团队对Roya，JF和Andrew加入我们感到非常高兴。我希望大家都欢迎我们。但是，它们并不是ACS Sensors编辑团队的唯一更改。不幸的是，在升任我们的总编辑Antonella（Nella）Mazur之前，我们不得不说再见，现在，她可以从上方监督该期刊。内拉（Nella）是致力于该杂志基础的人之一，因此她对ACS传感器的成功负有责任。。我们为她被ACS出版物如此推崇如此而感到自豪，我们感到非常自豪。内拉（Nella）当然会在任期结束时很好地照顾该杂志，包括确保妮可·卡马索（Nicole Camasso）被聘为我们的新总编辑。妮可（Nicole）本身拥有出色的出版记录，但更倾向于科学出版。我们欢迎妮可（Nicole）对本杂志产生了巨大影响。我想强调一点，在ACS Sensors，我们致力于多样性，因为如上所述，背景的多样性会导致观点的多样性，进而带来创新的科学进步。我们知道，今年我们编辑团队的新增人员全部来自北美和欧洲。我们不确定何时增加更多编辑人员，但是请放心，我们招募的下一批编辑人员将包括来自亚洲，南美或非洲的研究人员。本社论中表达的观点只是作者的观点，不一定是ACS的观点。本文尚未被其他出版物引用。
