We are delighted to announce that, after an extensive recruitment process, Jaume Sastre-Garriga has been appointed as the new Editor in Chief (EIC) of the MS Journal, effective 1 January 2025. Jaume has already spent many years working on the Journal as both the Controversies Editor and as one of the European Co-Editors, and brings with him a wealth of experience in the research of multiple sclerosis.
This appointment follows the decision by current EIC Alan Thompson to step down from the role after 18 years. Alan has been instrumental in the Journal’s success, and we are sure the whole community joins us in thanking him for his leadership and dedication. Alan will remain a member of the MS Journal Editorial Board.
The Journal is also currently searching for two editors to fill the roles of European & African Editor and Topical Reviews Editor to succeed Jaume and Ellen Mowry, who has decided to step down. Interested parties may contact Jaume and Ellen for more information, or follow up with the Journal Publisher Lizzie Brophy.
