Overview

Top Research Topics at Current Catalysis?

Current Catalysis facilitates discussions on Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Chemical engineering, Inorganic chemistry and Nuclear chemistry. Current Catalysis facilitates discussions on Catalysis that incorporate concepts from other fields like Medicinal chemistry, Nanoparticle, Polymer chemistry, Photochemistry and Combinatorial chemistry. The Combinatorial chemistry study featured in it draws connections with the study of One-pot synthesis.

Ionic liquid, Heterogeneous catalysis and Alcohol oxidation are all areas of Organic chemistry tackled in Current Catalysis. Most of the Heterogeneous catalysis studies addressed also intersect with Solvent free.

  • Catalysis (51.58%)

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 10.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 16.67% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 83.33% of all publications and 0.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

For those interested in expanding their expertise beyond traditional chemistry degrees, pursuing fast and flexible online programs can be a great option. Many students explore healthcare-related fields that align well with a strong science background. For instance, enrolling in some of the fastest online DNP programs allows professionals to advance in nursing with a focus on research and clinical practice, often accommodating busy schedules.

If you're aiming for quicker entry into the healthcare workforce, consider short medical assistant programs, which prepare students efficiently in clinical and administrative skills. Similarly, LPN 6 month programs offer accelerated pathways to become licensed practical nurses, providing essential healthcare support roles.

For chemistry graduates interested in the administrative side of healthcare, exploring accredited medical billing and coding schools online is a smart move. These programs equip students with the skills to manage healthcare data efficiently, often with options for financial aid and flexible study plans.

Each of these career pathways complements a chemistry background by offering diverse opportunities while catering to different timelines and professional goals. Choosing the right program depends on your interests, whether clinical practice, healthcare administration, or advanced nursing roles.
