Dear colleagues
The year 2023 will mark a crucial editorial transition for the International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents. After eight years, Jean-Marc Rolain stepped down as Editor-in-Chief at the end of 2022 and was succeeded by Jian Li, who officially took over on 1st January 2023. Jean-Marc was appointed as Editor-in-Chief of IJAA in 2015 and guided the journal through a remarkable transformation. Over the last years, Jean-Marc’s work and dedication to the journal contributed to building firm foundations for its future. As Jean-Marc stepped down as the Editor-in-Chief of IJAA, we have the privilege of welcoming Jian Li, who is committed to continuing the journal’s aims to maintain high standards of academic quality and integrity. Jean-Marc and Jian have worked together on a detailed handover plan since October 2022 to ensure continuity for the journal. From 1st January 2023, Jian Li has officially taken over as the Editor-in-Chief of the journal. On behalf of the IJAA community, ISAC and Elsevier would sincerely thank Jean-Marc for his dedication and service to the journal and to each of you for your continuous efforts and support to the journal and its community. Please join us in welcoming Jian Li as the new Editor-in-Chief of IJAA. Sincerely
Marianna Taffi, PhD, Senior Publisher, Elsevier Professor Geoff Coombs, ISAC President |
