Systematic Biology is the flagship journal of the Society of Systematic Biologists. Every three years, the society's Council members select a new Editor-in-Chief to lead the editorial board of the journal. The next elected editor will serve one year as Editor-Elect and then three years as Editor-in-Chief. As Editor-Elect, the new editor will begin their duties and receive training from the current Editor-in-Chief. This ensures that the new editor is prepared to take on the role and preserves continuity in the editorial process. The Editor-in-Chief is a member of the Society of Systematic Biologists Executive Committee, with full voting rights as an SSB Council member. Thus, editors fill an important leadership role in our scientific community.
