Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease | Topical Advisory Panel Established

Academic editors play a crucial role in leading our journals and ensuring that each article undergoes a robust and timely peer review. With the launch of Topics this year and the addition of Topic Editors to our family of academic editors, we decided it would be a good time to restructure our academic boards, thus providing more clarity and support for each role. MDPI is pleased to announce the launch of a new position—Topical Advisory Panel Member, which will replace the previous position of Topics Board Member. The Topical Advisory Panel will comprise early career researchers eager to gain experience in editorial work.

The main responsibility of the new members of the Topical Advisory Panel is to regularly provide support to Guest Editors, Topic Editors, and Section Board Members. The responsibilities of the Topical Advisory Panel are available here: https://www.mdpi.com/editors.

Each year, the members’ performances are evaluated, and outstanding members are promoted to the Editorial Board by the Editor-in-Chief.

To qualify as a Topical Advisory Panel Member, applicants must:

  • Have expertise and experience in the field related to the journal;
  • Have completed their Ph.D. in the last 10 years, approximately;
  • Have published at least 6 papers in the last 5 years as a first author or corresponding author;
  • Currently hold an independent research position in academia or a government institute.
