Congratulations to Dr. Nicolás Cortés-Penfield, who was recently invited to join the Open Forum Infectious Diseases editorial advisory board.
Editorial advisory boards are composed of influential individuals in a journal’s field who are tasked with guiding the direction and progress of a journal. This is accomplished in many ways but often involves reviewing potential manuscripts for scientific integrity and rigor before publication. Additionally, members provide input and knowledge to guide the development of a journal and, by extension, the academic field at large.
An invitation to a journal’s editorial advisory board is a recognition of expertise and quality contributions to a field’s scientific literature. Congratulations, Dr. Cortés-Penfield, on an honor well deserved!
