eLife Latest: Welcoming our newest editors

Bringing expertise in all major areas of research at eLife, 111 researchers join our editorial board as nine Reviewing Editors move to the leadership team.

Since last November, 111 scientists joined our Board of Reviewing Editors (BRE), while nine editors moved to senior roles on the eLife leadership team. The new editors work across all major areas of research considered for publication at eLife.

Reviewing Editors who have recently joined the Senior Editors team include:

  • Chris Baker, National Institute of Mental Health; Neuroscience
  • Matthias Barton, University of Zurich; Human Biology and Medicine
  • José Faraldo-Gómez, National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute; Biochemistry and Chemical Biology, Structural Biology and Molecular Biophysics
  • John Huguenard, Stanford University School of Medicine; Neuroscience
  • Tamar Makin, University College London; Neuroscience
  • George Perry, Pennsylvania State University; Evolutionary Biology, Ecology, Genetics and Genomics
  • Carla Rothlin, Yale University; Immunology and Inflammation
  • Piali Sengupta, Brandeis University; Neuroscience, Cell Biology
  • Jos van der Meer, Radboud University Medical Centre; Human Biology and Medicine, Microbiology and Infectious Disease

Tamar Makin and Chris Baker will be acting Senior Editors to provide additional support to our editorial board during the current COVID-19 outbreak.

Our Senior Editors are responsible for maintaining the high quality and broad scope of the work published in the journal. They decide, in consultation with members of the BRE, whether a paper should be sent for peer review. All manuscripts selected for review are then assigned to an appropriate BRE who recruits reviewers and oversees the online consultation among referees.
