Stuart CantrillOn #BlueMonday I like to think back to that time when I managed to get whole album's worth of New Order track titles into a #NatureChemistry editorial... https://stuartcantrill.com/2017/06/30/joy-provision/ (alas, Blue Monday was not one of them).
Gav ArmstrongLet's do an #introduction then...
I'm Chief #Editor of #NatureChemistry and have been at the journal since 2008, becoming Chief in August of this year. I handle the 'physical chemistry' papers.
I have a PhD in #chemistry (nonlinear chemical dynamics) and moved to #science #publishing in 2006 with a job at the Royal Society of Chemistry before moving to #Nature.
Live in #Calderdale with wife (Emma), 2 kids and a #cat.
