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.

Laura J. Frishman

John and Rebecca Moores Professor of Vision Science, Biology and Optometry
Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research in Physiological Optics and Vision Science

Prof. Frishman received her undergraduate degree from Vassar College in Poughkeepsie N.Y. and her MS and PhD in psychology from the University of Pittsburgh. She did postdoctoral training in visual neuroscience at Northwestern University and the University of California San Francisco where she also was a research faculty member. She joined the Optometry faculty in the College of Optometry in 1990, and she has taught in both the professional and graduate programs. Her research has focused on refining noninvasive electrophysiological approaches for evaluating retinal and anterior visual pathway function in normal subjects and subjects with inherited or acquired diseases that affect visual function.

Academic Editor for PLOS ONE and PeerJ, and she was Editor-in-Chief of the journal, Visual Neuroscience (2001-2007), and Documenta Ophthalmologica (2006-2013).
She has served on federal grant review panels, the NIH/NEI National Advisory Eye Council, and she is a fellow of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (FARVO), American Academy of Optometry (FAAO) and a board member of the International Society for the Clinical Electrophysiology of Vision (ISCEV).

Angela Giangrande

Angela Giangrande is a full professor (DR1 CNRS) at the Institut de Génétique et de Biologie Moléculaire et Cellulaire, Strasbourg, FRANCE. She is a member of the Society of Neuroscience and of the Genetics American Society. She is also a USIAS fellow (University of Strasbourg Institute for Advanced studies).

Charles GIllespie

I am an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry (M.D., Ph.D.) and the Associate Director of Medical Student Education in Psychiatry at Emory University. My clinical work focuses on the treatment of mood, anxiety, and stress/trauma-related disorders in adolescents and young adults. My primary research interest is the study of the psychobiology of trauma and stress across the lifespan. In addition to the complications of trauma-related psychopathology (post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, personality disorders, and substance abuse), individuals exposed to trauma also often bear a heavy burden of stress-related medical illness including obesity, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease. Impoverished minority populations in particular are at high risk for trauma exposure and have limited access to behavioral and medical healthcare. My current research focuses on the genetic mechanisms, environmental exposures, and stress pathobiology that contribute to risk for these disorders with particular emphasis on diabetes mellitus.

Tugrul Giray

I am a scientist working and living in Puerto Rico. I value enthusiasm about discovery, and the collective nature of scientific enterprise. I also hope that what we learn in the process is going to be used to improve our lives.

I am a Professor within the Biology Department at Universidad de Puerto Rico, Recinto de Rio Pidras.

My research focus is social insect behavior. I study evolution and genetics of physiological mechanisms of behavior to understand integration of individuals into the functional social insect colony.

Leonardo L Gollo

Leonardo is a Senior Research Fellow with training in Neuroscience and Physics. He works on Neuroscience, Computational Biology, Connectomics, and Complex Systems. His research focuses on computational and mathematical models of brain function.

Bruno Duarte Gomes

My research includes studying human and non-human primates visual system using psychophysics, visual evoked potentials and cortical extracellular recordings. Currently my focus are cortical areas related to visual attention in non-human primates.
