Nanotechnology is one of three featured themes here at the ACS meeting and there are over 1,000 talks under this broad umbrella. It is no mere coincidence, therefore, that I am here to promote Nature Nanotechnology, a new journal from Nature Publishing Group. And this week is an important one: we are now open for business. Our Call for Papers has been announced, and if you don’t manage to pick up one of the glossy leaflets scattered throughout the Georgia World Congress Center, please go and investigate our website, or come and talk to me at the exposition tomorrow at 10 am. (NPG booth #414). Our first issue will appear in October of 2006, so don’t delay, submit your best nano-related work as soon as you return home from Atlanta.
