Review delays can have several adverse effects on the field of catalysis:
Impact on Careers: Prolonged delays can affect the career progression of researchers, especially early-career scientists who rely on timely publications for grants and promotions. Funding Deadlines: Delays can result in missed opportunities for funding, which are often tied to published research outcomes. Technological Advancements: The slow dissemination of new findings can hinder technological progress and innovation in catalysis.
