2024 Partner

TechConnect is pleased to partner with Frontiers in Carbon journal for the 2024 meeting with an option to submit presented research. Frontiers in Carbon is a new multidisciplinary open access journal focusing on scientific progress and the technological advances relating to carbon-based materials, from biotechnology to electronics, and modelling to nano-technology. All authors with accepted submissions (either oral or poster) will be invited to submit their work for the consideration of publication in Frontiers in Carbon with its Specialty Chief Editor Dr. Anirudha Sumant, the co-chair for TechConnect's Graphene and 2D Materials symposium. Recognizing that authors may choose to revise their material after receiving feedback at the meeting, authors will be given some time to prepare a manuscript and submit.

You can find the research topic collection here, open for submissions: https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/64599/presentations-at-techconnect-2024 And guidelines on the submission process and article processing charges here and here.
