I told my colleagues that PeerJ is a journal where they need to publish if they want their paper to be published quickly and with the strict peer review expected from a good journal.

Giuseppe Fenu

Associate Professor in Systematic Botany at the University of Cagliari. My current research interests focus on the study of plant diversity of the Mediterranean systems, the main drivers that determine the distribution patterns and the conservation status of the endemic plants in these environments, as well as interactions, both at a specific and population levels, with environmental factors related to the anthropic presence including the on-going global change.

Dany Garant

Professor of Ecology in the Department of Biology at Université de Sherbrooke.

Research in my lab aims to understand the processes that generate and maintain biodiversity, mainly through the establishment of evolutionary related parameters in their ecological context. Current research projects in our laboratory involve molecular ecology, quantitative genetics and population dynamics to study wild animal populations.

Jose L. Gonzalez-Andujar

Dr. Jose L. Gonzalez-Andujar is a senior researcher of the Spanish Research Council (CSIC); visiting postgraduate professor of the Faculty of Agronomy of the Republic University (Uruguay), external professor of the Faculty of Agronomy of the Universidad Nacional del Sur (Argentina) and Scientific Director of the “International Laboratory on Global Change” (LINCGlobal).
He is member of the editorial boards of Weed Research, PLOS ONE and Agronomia y Ambiente, having served in the past as Associated Editor of Communications in Biometry and Crop Science, member of the editorial advisory committees of Biometrics, Biometry Bulletin and Journal of Agricultural, Biological and Environmental Statistics.

He also served as President of Spanish Weed Science Society, President and Past-President of the Latinoamerican Association of Weed Science, President and Vice-President of the Spanish Biometric Society and President of the Spanish Region of the International Biometric Society, Vice president and Secretary of the Spanish Society of Information Technology in Agriculture and Forestry, and received national and international awards and recognitions, including Honorary Member of the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA).

Nicole L. Gottdenker

Nicole Gottdenker is a disease ecologist and wildlife pathologist. She studies the impact of anthropogenic environmental change on the ecology of multihost pathogens and the pathogen-wildlife-domestic animal community interactions.

Andrew Gregory

Dr. Andrew Gregory is an Assistant Professor Wildlife Spatial Ecology at the University of North Texas, USA.

His research areas include; Corridor Ecology, Landscape Genetics/Genomics, Spatial Ecology, Human Dimensions of Forestry, and Rangeland Ecology.

Rodolfo Jaffé

I`m interested in inter-disciplinary approaches, comprising population and community ecology, genomics and spatial statistics, to understand how the alteration of natural habitats influences biodiversity and the provision of ecosystem services.

Seung-Chul Kim

The Curator of the Ha Eun Herbarium (SKK) and Professor of Biological Sciences, Sungkyunkwan University, Korea. Program Director for the Korean Society of Plant Taxonomists.

Elizabeth G King

Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences, University of Missouri. The goal of our research is to explain the diversity of life history strategies among organisms. We primarily, though not exclusively, use insect model systems for our research.

Anne Kuhn

Anne Kuhn holds a PhD in Environmental Science from the University of Rhode Island, and has expertise in the field of spatial statistics and developing approaches for evaluating the relative risks from chemical and non-chemical stressors on spatially structured populations of wildlife species across. Anne develops and evaluates watershed indicators to reflect and predict aquatic condition in lakes, streams and estuaries. Her current research involves evaluating key intrinsic factors controlling watershed physical processes and connectivity, and quantifying watershed-level stressors (e.g., land use, stable isotopes of nitrogen and carbon, nutrient loads, climate change, etc.) that influence the condition and integrity of water bodies within watersheds.

Barbara L Langille

I am currently an Associate Research Scientist at the Huntsman Marine Science Centre, working in the Atlantic salmon breeding and genetics division. I am tackling various research projects that involve genomically characterizing qualitative and quantitative traits. I recently finished a postdoc position at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography, working on various population structure and evolutionary genetics projects. Specifically, I was focusing on mito-nuclear interactions in trans-Atlantic fish, environmental associations and population structure in cleaner fish, and structural variants.

Dr. Barbara Langille obtained a PhD from the University of Adelaide, where she investigated the regression of vision/eye genes in subterranean diving beetles, evaluated modes of speciation, and determined behavioral responses of eyeless beetles to light. Dr. Langille also obtained a MSc from Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador, where she investigated the refugial origins and hybridization of freshwater fish.

Safarina G Malik

Safarina G. Malik is a Principal Investigator at the Genome Diversity and Disease Division of the Mochtar Riady Institute for Nanotechnology, Tangerang, Banten, Indonesia, since January 2022. From 2011 to 2021 she lead the Lifestyle Diseases Research Group at the Eijkman Institute for Molecular Biology, Jakarta, Indonesia. Her key research topics and expertise include genetic diversity, microbiome, mitochondrial genetics and dysfunction, medical genetics, lifestyle disease association, nutrigenetics-nutrigenomics, population genetics and evolution.
