Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Women have been underrepresented as first, last, and corresponding authors in prominent authorship positions. Furthermore, according to the UNESCO Institute for Statistics, only 30% of the world's scientific researchers identify as female. Attention should be drawn to the continued imbalance in female representation until parity can be reached. Membranes is proud to present our "Women's Special Issue Series: Membrane Materials and Applications", aimed at celebrating the achievements of women in membrane science and technology. The scope of Special Issue includes all aspects of topics in membrane material and application science.

Women’s Special Issue Series
This Special Issue is part of Membranes's Women’s Special Issue Series, hosted by women editors for women researchers. The Series advocates the advancement of women in science. We invite contributions to the Special Issue whose lead authors identify as women. The submission of articles with all-women authorship is especially encouraged. However, we do welcome articles from all authors, irrespective of gender.
The Membranes editorial office is also proud to announce one award "Membranes 2023 Early Career-Women Award" in the journal to reward the achievements of young female scientist in membrane science and technology.
