Cell Reports Physical Science is a premium open access journal from Cell Press, which:

• showcases high-quality, cutting-edge research from across the physical sciences
• provides a unique and open forum to promote collaboration between physical scientists
• champions open science across this community and beyond

Works published by the journal must represent a significant advance in fundamental insight and/or technological application within a field of research including, but not limited to, chemistry, physics, materials science, energy science, engineering, or related interdisciplinary work.

Like our sister journal Cell Reports, we consider impactful short-form single-point stories called reports, in addition to longer articles. We also publish short reviews covering recent literature in emerging and active fields.

As a highly visible open access journal well positioned to meet the requirements of physical scientists, we embrace innovation within the dynamic open science landscape and continually review our policies to reflect community consensus and advances in best practice.

The professional in-house scientific editors at Cell Reports Physical Science work closely with authors, reviewers, and the journal's scientific advisory board to ensure exemplary editorial process, fair and robust peer review, and rapid dissemination and communication of research.
