(MENAFN- The Peninsula) Doha: Qatar University's (QU) Emergent Materials (EM), a multi-disciplinary journal founded by QU and published by Springer Nature, has been indexed in Scopus.
Scopus is the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature: scientific journals, books, and conference proceedings. Scopus delivers a comprehensive overview of the world's research output in science, technology, medicine, social sciences, arts, and humanities, featuring smart tools to track, analyse, and visualise research.
Besides, EM has previously been indexed by the prestigious Web of Science after assessing the quality, number, and characteristics of papers published. Web of Science is a popular platform used to search literature and forms databases to support the world's most trusted citation index for scientific and scholarly research. EM aims to provide a publication source to the growing community of materials scientists — chemists, engineers, physicists, and researchers involved in innovative research in materials science and engineering. The goal is to publish a series of high-quality and high-impact research articles that reflect and bring the best research in physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering of advanced materials, by conveying these to the fore and the international research community.
The journal's founder, Prof Mariam Ali Al Maadeed, QU Vice-President for Research and Graduate Studies, stated, 'The progress of this magazine reflects the general strength and high quality of research administration and output at QU. The current international collaboration and involvement of scholars locally and internationally show that Qatar University can lead in the international scientific community with a powerful impact.
