Aims & Scope
Particle and Fibre Toxicology is a leading multi-disciplinary journal focused on understanding the physical and chemical properties of particles and fibres in relation to exposure and the resulting adverse human health effects (toxicity). Particle and Fibre Toxicology is fully open access and expertly peer-reviewed, functioning as a forum for debate and communication among scientists that produce and develop particle and fibre materials, including toxicology, material sciences, biomaterials, nanomedicine and other adjacent fields. The journal welcomes research on a diverse range of topics and provides a single, identifiable outlet for all these disciplines.

Best Paper of the Year Award
The ‘Best Paper of the Year’ award represents the best cutting-edge research published in the journal. The paper is selected by the journal's Editorial Board and is scored by its citations, downloads, and impact in the year.
This year's award was presented to Professor Ulrike Luderer and colleagues for their outstanding paper "Exposure to environmentally relevant concentrations of ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) depletes the ovarian follicle reserve and causes sex-dependent cardiovascular changes in apolipoprotein E null mice"
