Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems has announced the appointment of Professor Claire Kremen as its founding Field Chief Editor.
Claire Kremen is Professor in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management at University of California, Berkeley. She is also the Faculty Director for the Center for Diversified Farming Systems and the previous (Founding) Faculty Co-Director of the Berkeley Food Institute. Professor Kremen has an outstanding track record in the field of agriculture, ecology and biodiversity and she was awarded the 2007 MacArthur Foundation 'genius' Fellowship in recognition of her exceptional contributions. Her research has focused on the nexus between sustainable agriculture, conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services, reaching from theory to practice. Her current work explores the ecological, social and economic benefits, costs and barriers to adoption of diversified farming systems, and on restoring pollination and pest control services in intensively farmed landscapes in California.
Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems aims to advance the debate on sustainably achieving global food security by publishing rigorously peer-reviewed and Open Access research across the whole food supply chain.
As the founding Field Chief Editor of Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, Professor Kremen envisions building on the great start that the journal has already made, and bringing in more topics and more voices to the conversation.
