We are delighted to present the inaugural 2023 “Women in Nanotechnology” article collection.At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.Therefore, Frontiers in Nanotechnology is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all nanotechnology-related field.The work presented here highlights the diversity of research performed across the entire breadth the nanotechnology field and presents advances in theory, experiment, and methodology with applications to compelling problems.We welcome any corresponding authors (first or last author) who identifies as a woman to get in touch and have your work featured in this collection.
