The editors of the Macromolecular Journals have nominated the top papers of 2015!

The Macromolecular Journals are happy to present the latest edition of the Best of Macromolecular Journals. Best-of-Macros-2016-Cover1As always, the choice has been a real challenge: Imagine you have to select the top 10 of well over 800 published papers across our journals in 2015. The criteria for the selection of the top papers are numerous. First of all there are of course reviewer reports that provide a first good indication. The interest of our readers in terms of download numbers and citations of course help us as well. However, the most important criterion is the opinion of the editors. The selection presented here is the choice of David Huesmann, Anne Pfisterer, Stefan Spiegel, Mara Staffilani, and Kirsten Severing.

Here are the winning contributions: Congratulations to all authors!
