journal of medical microbiology introduces new categories

earlier this year we saw an introduction to co-editors-in- chief norman fry, public health england, and kalai mathee, florida international university, to the journal. with the aim of growing the journal for its readership, two new section categories have been introduced. the introduction of these categories will define the huge response in submissions within the clinical microbiology category.

disease, diagnosis and diagnostics 

section editor: arunaloke chakrabarti, postgraduate institute of medical education and research (pgimer), india.

antimicrobial resistance 

section editor: vincent cattoir, university of caen normandy, france.

for more information on these categories as well as others please see journal of medical microbiology's website.

ijsem welcomes new editor-in-chief 

we are delighted to announce the appointment of associate editor martha trujillo as the new editor-in-chief of international journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology (ijsem). an editor for the journal since 2009, martha has already contributed a wealth of experience and knowledge to ijsem. president of the bergey’s international society for microbial systematics and editor for bergey’s manual of archaea and bacteria, she is a leading expert in microbial ecology and systematics, with over 120 publications to her name.

after obtaining a phd in microbial systematics from newcastle university, professor trujillo completed a postdoc at novartis international ag and then joined instituto biomar, s.a. as research group leader for the marine fungi screening programme laboratory, before moving to the university of salamanca in spain in 2002. now vice-dean of the faculty of agriculture and environmental science, she leads the microbial ecology and biotechnology research group. her main research areas are actinobacterial systematics and microbial ecology, with a special interest in plant–actinobacteria interactions, and bacterial communities that inhabit deteriorated stone monuments and arid environments.

we would also like to say a huge thank you to aharon oren for all his hard work and sincere dedication to the role during his tenure as editor-in-chief. we are immensely pleased to be retaining his experience and expertise as nomenclature reviewer and list editor for the journal.
