Interview with Prof. Dr. Inger Odnevall—Winner of the Nanomaterials 2024 Best Paper Award


We are pleased to announce that Prof. Dr. Inger Odnevall’s paper “Reactive Oxygen Species Formed by Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles in Physiological Media—A Review of Reactions of Importance to Nanotoxicity and Proposal for Categorization” has been chosen as one of six articles of exceptional quality published in the journal Nanomaterials (ISSN: 2079-4991) in 2022 and has won the Nanomaterials 2024 Best Paper Award. As the award winner, Prof. Dr. Odnevall will receive CHF 300, a certificate, and a voucher granting a full waiver on the article processing charge (valid for one year).

The following is an interview with Prof. Dr. Inger Odnevall:

  1. Could you please briefly introduce yourself to our readers?
    I am a professor of corrosion science at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, and affiliated with Karolinska Institutet via AIMES, the Center for the Advancement of Integrated Medical and Engineering Sciences. For more than 30 years, I have been performing highly interdisciplinary research related to studies on the interaction between metallic surfaces and chemical conditions of relevance for both the environment and human health. My research is conducted in close collaboration with national and international industry and industrial organizations, stakeholders, government entities, and academic partners.
  2. Could you please briefly introduce the main content of your winning paper?
    The ultimate aim of the review paper is to provide an extensive overview of the prevailing mechanisms of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation related to the presence of metal and metal oxide NPs in biological settings and how to identify and elucidate connections and interrelations between different mechanisms and types of ROS species.
  3. What does your current research cover and why did you choose this research field?
    Research is, for example, ongoing to provide a mechanistic understanding of surface processes and characteristics of metallic materials used as high-touch surfaces, food contact materials, and biomaterials in contact with various biomolecules and bacteria. We are active in this research field since it is highly interdisciplinary and intriguing, and significant gaps in knowledge remain.
  4. What appealed to you about the journal that made you want to submit your paper? What benefits do you think authors can gain when publishing their articles in Nanomaterials?
    Their publications reach a broad audience with content relevant to interdisciplinary research activities in the field of nanomaterials.
  5. How was your experience submitting to Nanomaterials
    The submission process to Nanomaterials was straightforward, with communication and feedback being prompt and efficient.
  6. Can you briefly describe the key to a happy laboratory life?
    Strong teamwork, a positive attitude, and open communication create a supportive atmosphere where everyone feels included and contributes to shared goals.
  7. We are an open access journal. How do you think open access impacts authors?
    Open access enables researchers to share scientific findings with a wider audience, thereby increasing visibility, opportunities for new collaborations and networking, and the potential for higher citation rates.
  8. As the winner of this award, is there anything you want to express or anyone you wish to thank the most?
    I am deeply grateful for this award and would like to sincerely thank my co-authors for their significant contributions to the review paper: Dr. Amanda Kessler, Dr. Jonas Hedberg, and Assoc. Prof. Eva Blomberg.
