Oceanographic Center Scientist to Serve on Editorial Board of Journal

Jose Lopez, Ph.D., associate professor at the NSU Oceanographic Center, has been asked to serve as an associate editor for the American Genetic Association's Journal of Heredity. Lopez has several colleagues on the board, including Stephen J. O'Brien, Ph.D., who served as the editor in chief for many years.

Lopez says he is honored to accept the invitation, and the chance to serve the Association and the wider genetics community by editing manuscripts and handling reviews for the high quality journal. The journal publishes bimonthly scientific articles on a wide variety of organismal systems and genetics-related topics.

The Journal of Heredity can be found in the Health Professions Library and at http://jhered.oxfordjournals.org/.
