Dr. Edward T. Morgan’s term as editor of Drug Metabolism and Disposition will come to a close at the end of 2017. He has served as editor since 2012 and, per ASPET’s bylaws, cannot be renewed for another term. ASPET’s Board of Publications Trustees must begin the search for his successor.  The deadline for nominations is 5:00 PM EDT on April 28, 2017.  Self-nominations are welcome.

ASPET editors serve for a three-year term that can be renewed for one additional three-year term.   The position includes an honorarium.  The peer-review process is managed at the ASPET office using an online manuscript submission and peer review system.

Nominees must be an ASPET member in good standing and should have served on an editorial board.  Before nominating a candidate, please make sure the person is willing to serve.  Nominations should include a brief statement supporting the candidate and the candidate’s CV.

The selection process will include telephone interviews with the top candidates and is expected to be completed no later than August 2017.  The incoming editor will begin working with the outgoing editor and ASPET staff during the fall and will assume all of the responsibilities of the editor effective January 1, 2018.

Nominations, including a supporting statement and the candidate’s CV, should be sent to Rich Dodenhoff, ASPET Journals Director, at rdodenhoff@aspet.org.  You will receive confirmation of receipt of the nomination.
