Editorial BoardWe would like to welcome Professor Shu Kobayashi, Tokyo University, onto theGreen ChemistryEditorial Board from this year. Professor Kobayashi’s longstanding and world-renowned experience in efficient synthetic methodologies including asymmetric catalysis, organic reactions in water, microencapsulated catalysts, and microreactors in organic synthesis will provide an additional regional link forGreen Chemistryin Asia. Shu has been a stimulating plenary speaker at many green chemistry conferences and his research has been recognised with a long list of prestigious awards, including most recently the Arthur C. Cope Scholarship and Howard Memorial Lectureship. We look forward very much to his input and collaboration within the editorial board.
