About The Role
As a member of the Cell Host & Microbe editorial team, you will be responsible for a broad range of contributions, including assessing submitted research papers; selecting and collaborating with accomplished referees; recruiting exciting studies; identifying timely, emerging topics to commission for review articles; writing and editing content for the journal homepage and social media outlets; and engaging authors throughout the review process. You will play an active role in the development and implementation of journal strategy. The job also entails traveling to scientific conferences and research institutions where you will directly interact with the scientific community.
Cell Press editors engage with the scientific community to catalyze scientific discovery and promote discourse. We provide scientists with valuable perspectives and candid feedback to help make their work clear, rigorous, and transparent so that readers can understand, trust, and build upon that work. We believe that science can have powerful and positive impacts on the environment, planet, human health and society, and our mission is to enable science and scientists, whoever and wherever they are.
We welcome applications from candidates with great communication skills and strong scientific expertise in any area relevant to microbiology, host-pathogen interactions, infectious disease, and environmental microbiology. However, we will consider candidates with expertise in any area of life sciences. We are open to considering candidates at junior and associate levels.
