Associate Editors
Associate Editors are accomplished colleagues that have agreed to handle manuscripts assigned by Section Editors.
Assistant Editors are promising Ph.D. candidates or other exceptional biologists with some publication experience (typically as 1st author of at least two peer reviewed papers) that seek to gain experience with the editorial process.
Production Manager
The Production Manager plays a critical role and is responsible for taking a double-spaced manuscript and transforming it into the final journal format. This includes creating columns, inserting the figures and tables and generally creating the polished final product published by Herpetological Conservation and Biology.
