Following a recent 15-year history of unprecedented growth in publishing exciting discoveries in the fields of integrative anatomy and evolutionary biology, and establishing the journal as an international venue, The Anatomical Record (AR) is poised for even more innovation in the coming years through transition of the journal’s Editor-in-Chief (EIC).
Dr. Heather F. Smith has been selected for AR, effective January 1, 2021. He will succeed the current EIC, Dr. Kurt H. Albertine. An EIC Selection Committee chaired by Dr. Kem Rogers of Western University, Canada, executed a deliberate and careful process that endured the COVID-19 pandemic to arrive at Dr. Smith’s selection, approved by the Board of Directors.
As incoming EIC, Dr. Smith’s exciting vision for AR includes, among others, combining innovative leadership approaches to disseminate pioneering anatomical research that uses novel technologies; bringing to the forefront discoveries about historically understudied taxonomic groups; and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion across AR’s mission through special issues and other publication opportunities.
