Manuscript Selection Process
At Angewandte Chemie Novit, we do not accept direct submissions. Instead, we carefully select from the high-quality research submitted to Angewandte Chemie. Our unique, multi-step manuscript selection process ensures that we identify articles based on their scientific merit and potential long-term impact. Our dedicated team of in-house editors and Scientific Advisory Committee work together to identify the most exceptional manuscripts that have successfully undergone the fair, rigorous, and timely peer-review process at Angewandte Chemie. Authors of these hand-selected manuscripts will be invited to publish their articles in Angewandte Chemie Novit. The final choice lies with the authors: They can either accept the offer for up-transfer to Angewandte Chemie Novit and benefit from increased visibility and exclusive promotional activities, or they can choose the traditional route and publish their work in Angewandte Chemie.
