Abstract

This year, we present 36 emerging researchers from around the world, all roughly under the age of 35 (or thereabouts). This is our fourth year highlighting emerging researchers in this age group, and this year's cohort was formed through an initial set of invitations from the editorial team, followed by contributors each nominating two peers in a guided, self-propagating pyramid process. The resulting group exemplifies the vibrant diversity and innovation shaping today’s materials science landscape.
