We are happy to welcome new reviewing editors in: biochemistry, biophysics and structural biology, cell biology, computational and systems biology, developmental biology and stem cells, epidemiology and global health, genomics and evolutionary biology, genes and chromosomes, human biology and medicine, immunology, microbiology and infectious disease, neuroscience, and in plant biology.
We are delighted to announce the newest members of the eLife Board of Reviewing Editors (BRE). They bring strong expertise in each of their areas and will help us maintain the efficient and constructive editorial process that eLife is known for.
The BRE is responsible for reviewing articles, at the request of the senior editors, and recruiting additional reviewers as needed. Once reviews are in, the BRE and reviewers consult with one another to finalise their decision and form a consolidated set of comments for the author – which is what sets eLife’s editorial process apart from others. Learn all about the eLife editorial process on our website.
