N2 - In the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology, Nano Today continuously provides a platform for researchers from all over the world to present their latest valuable and creative research outcome. We here celebrate the journal's 15th year's birthday by combing through its achievements in the past, which may provide a reflection on the developmental trend of nanoscience and nanotechnology. With the aid of bibliometric analytical methods, we looked at annual publication volume, the most prolific countries/affiliations/authors, the top-cited papers, major research domains and disciplines in Nano Today using Web of Science Core Collection database. Since 2020, the inclusion of primary research articles enables more time-sensitive and dynamic research advances appearing in Nano Today. It is anticipated that more exciting and dynamic research advances will appear in the journal.
