Expansion of the Senior Editorial Team at JoA
Following a continuing rise in submissions to the Journal over recent years, we're delighted to announce that we've doubled our senior editorial capacity by recruiting two new Associate Editors to join Ann Hagell and Nancy Darling. This will significantly improve our ability to process manuscripts efficiently and swiftly. Professor James Cote, from the Department of Sociology at the University of Western Ontario in Canada, and Dr Melanie Zimmer-Gembeck from the School of Psychology at Griffiths University in Australia both join the team. We will also be recruiting two new Assistant Editors.
