Welcome Our New Editors!
We are thrilled to announce the addition of four distinguished researchers to the editorial teams of our Insect Science journals. Their expertise and dedication will enhance the quality and scope of our publications, and we are excited to see the impact they will have on their respective fields.
Meet Our New Editors
Dr. Yuan Sui
Associate Editor for Biological Control 新しいタブ／ウィンドウで開く Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences
Dr. Yuan Sui is a prominent professor at Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences. She earned her Ph.D. from the Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and furthered her research at USDA-ARS and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in the USA.
Her research primarily focuses on the exploration of biocontrol products and the biocontrol of plant diseases, particularly postharvest diseases. Additionally, Dr. Sui investigates the plant microbiome through bioinformatics and molecular biology. With her extensive background, she will bring valuable insights and innovative approaches to our journal.
Dr. Gaëlle Le Goff
Associate Editor for Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology 新しいタブ／ウィンドウで開く French National Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment (INRAE)
Dr. Gaëlle Le Goff is a researcher at INRAE and heads the Team Interactions Plant – Insect – Environment at the Institute Sophia Agrobiotech. She obtained her Ph.D. in Molecular Biology and Pharmacology from the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis, France, and was awarded a highly competitive Marie Curie fellowship for her post-doctoral research at the University of Bath, UK, focusing on insecticide resistance.
Her research centers on the adaptation of insects to toxic compounds in their environment, including plant secondary metabolites and insecticides. Dr. Le Goff conducts functional genomics studies with a particular interest in detoxification enzymes and their regulation. She has led numerous international projects and is recognized internationally for her expertise in evaluating research initiatives.
Dr. Bryony Bonning
Editor in Chief for Current Opinion in Insect Science 新しいタブ／ウィンドウで開く University of Florida
Dr. Bryony Bonning is an eminent scholar and professor of entomology and nematology at the University of Florida, where she serves as the Director of the Center for Arthropod Management Technologies (CAMTech), a National Science Foundation Industry-University Cooperative Research Center. She earned her Ph.D. from the University of London, UK, and held postdoctoral appointments at the Natural Environment Research Council Institute of Virology in Oxford, UK, and the Department of Entomology, University of California, Davis, before joining the Department of Entomology at Iowa State University in 1994. In 2017, she took the Davies, Fischer, and Eckes Eminent Scholar Chair at the University of Florida.
A Fellow of the Entomological Society of America, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the U.S. National Academy of Inventors, Dr. Bonning’s internationally recognized research focuses on insect physiology and insect pathology, aligned with the development of novel, environmentally benign approaches for managing insect pests and vector-borne diseases. A major emphasis of her current research program is the insect gut surface proteome and the identification of gut surface proteins that mediate pathogen entry.
Dr. Art Woods
Editor for the Journal of Insect Physiology 新しいタブ／ウィンドウで開く University of Montana
Dr. Art Woods is a professor emeritus at The University of Montana. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Washington and completed postdoctoral work at Arizona State University. After a brief period as a lecturer at The University of Texas at Austin, he moved to The University of Montana in 2006, where he has remained ever since.
Dr. Woods has worked on a broad array of topics in insect and marine invertebrate biology, including nutritional physiology, growth, stoichiometry, water regulation, respiratory gas exchange, thermal ecology, and plant-insect interactions. His research has focused on how insects experience plant-derived microclimates, the physiological and behavioral mechanisms they use to exploit microclimatic diversity, and how that diversity may help insects adapt to habitat shifts associated with climate change.
A Bright Future Ahead
We believe that the addition of these esteemed editors will not only enhance our editorial standards but also contribute to advancing research in insect science. Their diverse expertise and perspectives will help shape the future direction of our journals.
We invite you to join us in welcoming Dr. Yuan Sui, Dr. Gaëlle Le Goff, Dr. Bryony Bonning, and Dr. Art Woods to their new roles. Stay tuned for exciting new content and initiatives as they lead our editorial teams!
