We are delighted to present the 2023 Women in Chemistry article collection. Following the celebration of International Women’s Day 2023 and the UNESCO International Day of Women and Girls in Science, Frontiers in Chemistry is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women in this field. At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging women and girls away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
Provides in depth reviews on current progress in the fields of asymmetric synthesis, organometallic chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, heterocyclic chemistry, natural product chemistry, and analytical methods in organic chemistry. Each issue is edited by an appointed Executive Guest Editor
