Editor-in-Chief

The Editor oversees the entire editorial and publishing processes. The Editor, working with the Journal Manager (or playing both roles), typically establishes the policies and procedures for the journal, which are used in configuring the journal and Journal management.

Via the Editorial Process, the Editor assigns submissions to the Section Editors to see through the Review and Editing processes, while keeping an eye on the submission’s progress and assisting with any difficulties in the process.

The Editor can also play the role of Section Editor in the Editing process, seeing accepted submissions through copyediting, layout, and proofreading.

The Editor also schedules submissions for publication, arranges the Table of Contents and publishes the issue, as part of the Publishing Process. 

The Acta Cell Biologica typically asks one or more of the selected editors to edit the received manuscript. Therefore, selecting the right editor for a paper depends on the required needs and, sometimes, available budget.

It is recommended that the author (s) use the cooperation and comments of different types of editors to improve the writing of manuscript.
