Role and Responsibilities
Manuscript review and preparation
Those in the role of Associate Editor will play a pivotal role in assessing new manuscript submissions in their fields of expertise, guiding them through the peer review process, and ensuring they adhere to the ethos, editorial standards, policies, and scope of the Journal. Consistent with this new role, Associate Editors will be responsible for inviting peer reviewers, and recommending decisions to the Editor(s)-in-Chief in light of the reviews received. The Associate Editors are not expected to draft reviews themselves, but will share the other aspects of the main Editorial Board’s involvement as noted below. The intention is that an individual Associate Editor would handle a maximum of 24 manuscripts per year.
Journal advocacy
Associate Editors are ambassadors for the Journal, encouraging submissions and highlighting the ethos, scope and aims of the Journal.
