Dr. Laura Fisher is an Executive Editor for RSC Advances, RSC Mechanochemistry, and RSC Pharmaceutics at the 外网天堂 (RSC). She joined the RSC in 2014 and previously worked as Publishing Editor and then Deputy Editor for the journals Soft Matter, Polymer Chemistry, Biomaterials Science, Reaction Chemistry & Engineering, and MSDE.
She holds a master's degree in chemistry and a PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Bath, where she studied H鈧�, CO鈧�, and N鈧� adsorption in metal-organic frameworks. After leaving Bath she completed a postdoc at Stellenbosch University, South Africa, before leaving research to begin a career in publishing.
She is also an advocate for improving inclusion and diversity in publishing and worked on updating the RSC’s author name changes policy, as well as acting as an inclusion and diversity representative within the organisation. She also has a keen interest in publishing ethics, having played a major role in the RSC’s paper mills investigation during 2020.

Dr Donna Arnold is Senior Lecturer in Chemistry and Forensic Science at the University of Kent. Her PhD, undertaken at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, focussed on the structure and electronic properties of porous manganese oxides. She has since worked at the Foundation for Research and Technology in Crete and undertaken postdoctoral research at the University of St Andrews. Her research on functional nanomaterials at University College Cork earned her national recognition for her role in the design of the first patterned substrates manufactured by Intel to meet key research needs.

Dr. Monika Gupta earned her B.Sc. and M.Sc. from the University of Delhi and completed her Ph.D. at IISER Mohali in 2018 under Prof. Santanu Kumar Pal, focusing on discotic liquid crystals for optoelectronic applications. She conducted postdoctoral research at The University of Tokyo (2018–2020) and the Institute for Basic Sciences, Seoul (2020–2021). A recipient of the prestigious Ramanujan Fellowship, she worked at IIT Ropar until February 2025. Her current research at IIT Jodhpur centers on the molecular design of visible light-responsive liquid crystals for solar thermal fuels, with aims to improve photoisomerization efficiency, energy storage duration, and heat release control. She has received several accolades including the IUCr Young Scientist Award (2016), SERB-ITS Grants (2016, 2024), the WISER Grant (2023), and the JLCS Award (2023).

Professor Kaushik Chatterjee received his Ph.D. in Bioengineering from the Pennsylvania State University. He worked as a postdoctoral fellow jointly at the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the National Institutes of Health, USA. He then joined the Indian Institute of Science, where he is currently a Professor in the Department of Materials Engineering and the Department of Bioengineering. He also serves as the Chair of the Department of Bioengineering at IISc and an Associate Editor for the Journal of Materials Chemistry B and Materials Advances.
