Guidelines for Editors

Editorial review at PLOS Pathogens is run by an international Editorial Board comprised of working researchers under the leadership of the Editors-in-Chief​. The Editorial Board is part of the larger PLOS Editorial Board community and upholds the Code of Conduct for Editorial Board Members.

The Editorial Board includes Section Editors with high-level oversight of the peer review process, and Academic Editors who directly manage the peer review process.
