Prof. Wenguo Cui

When did you get to know about BMC Materials? And what made you decide to join the journal?

I learned about BMC Materials in October 2018 when Dr. Harriet Manning, Editor at BMC, set up the journal. After extensive survey and careful speculation, Dr. Manning determined that six major fields of materials would be incorporated into the scope of BMC Materials.  She also asked experts from the six fields to recommend researchers who can lead and voluntarily serve the new journal. It was really a great honor for me to receive the invitation from Harriet. After several pleasant rounds of emails and phone calls, I joined the editorial board of BMC Materials and now focus on biological and biomedical materials. I am a science researcher mainly engaged in the field of biomedical materials, which happens to be one of the six major fields within the scope of BMC Materials. I sincerely hope that the journal can bridge the fields of biology, medicine and materials science, helping clinicians to familiarize themselves with materials science and materials researchers with medicine.
