Greetings from the Editor-in-chief

I am Professor of Genetics and Deputy Head of the Department of Genetics, Ecology and Evolution, Vasco Azevedo, at Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil. I am a member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences and am a Knight of the National Order of Scientific Merit of the Brazilian Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation, also, I am researcher 1A of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) which is the highest position.

It is a humbling thing to be asked to take up the post of Editor-in-Chief in a field with so many talented researchers. I would like to say a heartfelt thanks to the members of the Editorial Board of IIOAB Journal for their confidence in me.

IIOAB is a thriving journal offering papers on multiple scientific and technical areas. The journal is undergoing some major changes, including the recent transferal of papers to updated peer-review management system. With this new system authors can expect fast publication times of around 4 or 5 months from submission, and excellent author service.

In this world of ever-changing technology, the Editorial Board and I aim to reduce the time to publication for researchers in this exciting area of science and engineering. I am in the process of developing a team of Associate Editors to promote the journal in the number of critical sub-areas, and to play a key, integral role in the review process. Associate Editors will be chosen to serve in several sub-areas to ensure expertise and continuation of the rigorous review process. Under my leadership as the Editor-in-Chief, I aim to ensure that IIOAB Journal maintains and grows in quality to best serve our diverse community of researchers.

With warm regards,
Vasco Azevedo
Editor-in-Chief
