Kuan-Teh Jeang elected to Academia Sinica
It was recently announced that Kuan-Teh Jeang, Editor-in-Chief of Retrovirology, has been elected to Academia Sinica, the preeminent academic institution in Taiwan. Academia Sinica held its biennial Convocation of Academicians earlier this month, culminating in the announcement of the 2008 list of Academicians. A total of 7 new Academicians were elected to the Division of Life Sciences including Prof Jeang. This honour recognises Prof Jeang’s significant contributions to HIV and retrovirus research.
Professor Jeang launched Retrovirology with BioMed Central in 2004, and the journal has quickly gained a strong reputation in its field, receiving its first Impact Factor (4.04) last month. The journal publishes articles on all aspects of basic retrovirus research, and also runs its own journal blog, highlighting important developments in the field.Posted by Charlotte Hubbard at 16:05 Comments (4)
