Associate Editor Spotlight
Karin Musier鈥揊orsyth
"I really like being an associate editor of a society-based journal that鈥檚 run by scientists from the editor-in-chief down to the AEs and the editorial board members. Because it鈥檚 run by scientists, I think the review process is really fair; the people that are reviewing the papers are also going to be wanting to publish someday."
