Interested in publishing in NIR news?

NIR news does not publish peer-reviewed papers: the Journal of Near Infrared Spectroscopy is the place to publish such papers. However, we are pleased to hear from potential authors who would like to write an article on a particularly innovative or important application, or who would like to give an overview of recent significant research. Please contact the Editor, Gerry Downey (gerard.downey@nirnews.com), to discuss your contribution.
