The FASEB J Call for Editor-in-Chief 

The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) is pleased to announce a call for nominations for the next Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal. All nominations will be treated as anonymous and presented for consideration to the Editor Search Committee, which is comprised of research-active biological and biomedical scientists.

The FASEB Journal is the flagship journal of the Federation, serving the global community for more than 40 years, and ranking globally as a top-cited journal across all of biology. The FASEB Journal editorship is a highly influential position with a unique opportunity to shape a leading journal; improve the overall communication of new research findings; drive new standards in rigor, reproducibility, and data sharing; and embrace an increasingly open science environment. 

FASEB seeks a visionary Editor-in-Chief, a true leader in the field. A dedicated in-house team will work with our publishing partner, John Wiley & Sons, and with a contract team of editorial support staff to ensure the Editor has the time to focus on the vision and leadership role desired.
